Section 2 says: 

   This document replaces the RFC 2780 Section 4.3 rule [RFC2780] with
   the following:

      IANA allocates values from the IPv4 Protocol name space following
      an IESG Approval or Standards Action process.

   This document also makes an implicit change to the rule for the IPv6
   Next Header field in Section 5.3 of RFC 2780.  That rule refers to
   the rule in Section 4.3 of the same RFC.  From now on, this reference
   should be understood to refer to the rule revised here, i.e., without
   the Expert Review option.

It should say:

   This document replaces the RFC 2780 Section 4.3 rule [RFC2780] with
   the following:

      IANA allocates values from the IPv4 Protocol name space following
      an IESG Approval or Standards Action process [RFC5226].

   This document also makes an implicit change to the rule for the IPv6
   Next Header field in Section 5.3 of RFC 2780.  That rule refers to

   should be understood to refer to the rule revised here, i.e., without
   the Expert Review option.

Notes:

The reference to RFC 5226 is probably missing here.

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.
