One more thought: please verify how this behaves with openlldpad.
It's a fairly major user of this API.

I guess it is OK if it refuses to run or bails out in face of the PCP
APP entries. On its own it will never introduce them, so this clear and
noisy diagnostic when a user messes with the system through a different
channels is OK IMHO.

But it shouldn't silently reinterpret the 255 to mean something else.
