The payload length does not include the MESSAGE_HEADER_LEN which means that our calculation for the remaining size of the version payload is too small. When the payload length is exactly 104 bytes (as it is with Bitcoin Core 0.15.0.1 due to the slightly longer user agent), this will cause
get_varint
to fail. This was not experienced before because the version message was 2 bytes shorter at 102 bytes so the size remaining was greater than 0.This should fix the bug identified by @jameshilliard on IRC.
