Fix is in ipldutil/traverser.go; without this, an identity CID in a DAG that contains a link to more blocks won't be properly traversed. Unsure how common this is in the real world, most identity CIDs are for chunks that are small enough that they can't fit a CID in but there are instances where people feel it worthwhile to inline chunks much larger than this (e.g.. The Filecoin chain itself has such inline CIDs too.
