NAK, it is a bug but not in a way that we can do this, which will break the unpack. The first entry is reserved, and for the moment should be skipped. Double loading to
&perm->allow, effectively does that but was not what was intended either. There is a patch coming that loads the first entry to a tmp variable and does a check that it is 0.
