By the way, is H.245 defined here to use an Adler-32 checksum to  
identify objects, or is this just a way to condense an OID into an  
integer so it can be used in a dissector table?  There are places where  
we might want dissector tables based on text strings, e.g. for  
Content-Type in HTTP; we might want dissector tables based on OIDs as  
well.
