Note that "ReorderingPacketBuffer" works from a single sequence number 
space.  If your 'normal' packets and your 'FEC-computed' packets use the 
same sequence number space, then what you're trying to do should work.

However, since you've modified the original code, I don't know exactly what 
you've done, so there's only so much I can do to help.  Remember, You Have 
Complete Source Code.
