I think that test made ESFQ not crash when I did a "qdisc change" 
without giving any parameters, but that was a while ago and I might be 
mistaken. I'll need to rewrite much of this function anyway, and I'll 
pay attention to what happens when I get there.

It got lost in translation; I will add it to 6/7.
