It should say:

1.  Introduction

   This document revises the IANA guidelines [RFC2780] for allocating
   new Protocol field values in IPv4 header [RFC791].

Notes:

Either the link to RFC0791 should point to https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc791 (without the zero), or the url to RFC0791 itself is wrong without the zero.
--VERIFIER NOTES--
This is about a rendering issue in the HTMLized version of the RFC. The reference entry does contain the correct URL.
