Configuration: fragementation statements after connection profiles honored by mistake

Description

OpenVPN 2.2.2 honors 'fragment' statements in config files written after <connection>-profiles, whereas OpenVPN 2.3.0 only honors them when they are before the <connection>-profile.
According to the manpage 2.3 behaves as expected, whereas 2.2.2 honors this by mistake.

This are minimal sample configs working for 2.2.2, but causing fragmentation error messages on the server when using 2.3.0 on the client:


nobind
<connection>

remote a.b.c.d 1101

</connection>
dev tun
secret k.key
ifconfig 10.8.0.2 10.8.0.1
fragment 1400
mssfix


port 1101
dev tun
secret k.key
ifconfig 10.8.0.1 10.8.0.2
fragment 1400
mssfix


This entry is a hint for all people stumbling over this while upgrading from 2.2 -> 2.3 ;)
