> If TFramedTransport manages to read a negative-sized frame header off the wire, it will blithely try to create a buffer with negative size. This throws a NegativeArraySizeException, which is a undeclared exception type. The upshot is that even if you are catching TTransportExceptions, you will end up with an untrapped exception, which seems stupid.
> We should check if the size is negative and throw an appropriate declared exception instead.
