Follow-up Comment #2, bug #2942 (project lwip):

Well, I'd have to say since we don't have it now, and things are apparently
working okay, we must not really need it. ;)
The only real issue I see here is that pbuf_realloc() SOUNDS like it should
be able to construct a larger payload area... and it can't, hence the
well-documented shortcoming. Why bug #2942 was entered, I don't know... Did
Leon want this functionality for some specific purpose?
Perhaps simply renaming it from pbuf_realloc() to pbuf_trim() or something
along those lines would be sufficient to put this one to rest?
