This commit is kind of borderline too-big for just a one-line commit message.

It is admittedly very simple (changing the same pointer math in ~50 places),
but it needs a bit more explanation about why it's helpful or necessary.

I *think* it's because the protocol-100 code will use a different-sized header,
but that needs to be actually explained somewhere.

Cheers,
