Section 4 says:


It should say:

   Extension headers must never be inserted by any node other than the
   source of the packet.  IP Encapsulation must be used to meet any
   requirement for inserting headers, for example, as defined in
   [RFC2473].

Notes:

This is being handled in the 2460bis work.
