Bug in auxiliary/admin/backupexec/dump

There is a bug in the auxiliary/admin/backupexec/dump module. In this
code if the length is less than 4 then get_once is called but as the
length is less than 4 when 4 is subtracted you are requesting a
negative length:
def ndmp_recv(nsock = self.sock)
# Attempt to read at least four bytes (the length value)
if (self.recv_buff.length < 4)
self.recv_buff << ( sock.get_once(self.recv_buff.length - 4, 5) || '' )
end
This is the exception thrown in my situation as the initial length is
0 so a length of -4 is requested.
msf auxiliary(dump) > exploit
[*] Attempting to retrieve C:\boot.ini...
[-] Auxiliary failed: ArgumentError negative length -4 given

It either needs to request a correct length or this if needs removing
and the next one that just returns if length is less than 4 left in.
