Some application code is dereferencing the pointer returned by 'packet_content' at packet streams without checking that it is valid. Throw an exception rather than return a null pointer, except for zero-length packets, which have somewhat implicit invalid content and that we believe to be properly handled in all current cases. The client-side of a packet stream cannot take corrective action if the server-side is sending packets with invalid content, but the servers that provide packet streams should catch this exception to detect misbehaving clients.
