Correct - unfortunately, I don't believe that there's any way to know if an 
abort is for an RMPP message that is being sent, versus received.  I.e. host A 
can send an RMPP message to host B with TID=3 at the same time host B sends an 
RMPP message to host A with TID=3.  If host B sends an abort, host A has no idea 
  which transaction is being aborted.
