The subject is really curiously formatted.  Maybe:
    ofproto-dpif-xlate: Do not clear ports with frags in xlate_actions().

Anyway, this was not the behavior I had in mind from OF1.0 originally,
but it makes a lot more sense and I think that it matches the letter
and the spirit of the OF1.0 specification.  Thanks.
