[Swan-dev] strongswan fragmentation notify payload dropped in later versions?

It seems strongswan has actually shown regression. I bumped my machine
to use 5.3.3 and do a test where strongswan initiates and we want
fragmentation. It failed to send the notify payload. I then added
fragmentation=yes and it still didn't sent the notify:

I have to dive into why this notification payload is no longer
appearing.... But its not due to bad versions of strongswan, which I
told people before....
