WebFunds is trying to decode the packet.  It seems to have got
past the ascii-armoured stage, albeit with some errors, and has
tried to decode a raw byte array into a Payment.

WebFunds then barfs, saying (correctly) that this isn't any payment
that it understands.

Question is, what is the payment?  It might be a dud payment, or it
might be a bug in the decode part.  I don't suppose you still have
the payment?

(BTW, I'll post on the inadequate support situation later...)
