This is stricter for Titan and Nautilus too, since both reach this
through ev6_machine_check() and Titan also through
privateer_process_logout_frame(). A frame that fails the check now gets
a raw dump where it used to get a decode. I think that is the right
trade, and the changelog says it is unverified there.
