	<para>
		The module implements all the operations regarding MaX-Forward header 
		field, like adding it (if not present) or decrementing and checking 
		the value of the existent one.

	<title>Exported Parameters</title>
	<section>
		<title><varname>max_limit</varname> (integer)</title>
		<para>
		Set an upper limit for the max-forward value in the outgoing requests.
		If the header is present, the decremented value is not allowed to 
		exceed this max_limits - if it does, the header value will by 
		decreased to <quote>max_limit</quote>.
		</para>
		<para>
		The range of values stretches from 1 to 256, which is the maximum 
		MAX-FORWARDS value allowed by RFC 3261.
		</para>
		<para>
		<emphasis>
			Default value is <quote>256</quote>.

	<title>Exported Functions</title>
	<section>
		<title>
		<function moreinfo="none">mf_process_maxfwd_header(max_value)</function>
		</title>
		<para>
		If no Max-Forward header is present in the received request, a header 
		will be added having the original value equal with 
		<quote>max_value</quote>. If a Max-Forward header is already present,
		its value will be decremented (if not 0).
		</para>
		<para>Retuning codes:</para>
		<itemizedlist>
		<listitem>
			<para><emphasis>2 (true)</emphasis> - header was not found and
			a new header was succesfully added.
			</para>
		</listitem>
		<listitem>
			<para><emphasis>1 (true)</emphasis> - header was found and its 
			value was successfully decremented (had a non-0 value).
			</para>
		</listitem>
		<listitem>
			<para><emphasis>-1 (false)</emphasis> - the header was found and
			its value is 0 (cannot be decremented).
			</para>
		</listitem>
		<listitem>
			<para><emphasis>-2 (false)</emphasis> - error during processing.
			</para>
		</listitem>
		</itemizedlist>
		<para>
		The return code may be extensivly tested via script variable 
		<quote>retcode</quote> (or <quote>$?</quote>).
		</para>
		<para>Meaning of the parameters is as follows:</para>
		<itemizedlist>
		<listitem>
			<para><emphasis>max_value</emphasis> - Value to be added if 
			there is no Max-Forwards header field in the message.
			</para>
		</listitem>
		</itemizedlist>
		<para>
		This function can be used from REQUEST_ROUTE.

# initial sanity checks -- messages with

	<section>
		<title>
		<function moreinfo="none">is_maxfwd_lt(max_value)</function>
		</title>
		<para>
		Checks if the Max-Forward header value is less then the 
		<quote>max_value</quote> parameter value. It considers also the value
		of the new inserted header (if locally added).
		</para>
		<para>Retuning codes:</para>

		<para>Meaning of the parameters is as follows:</para>
