See
http://buildbot.wireshark.org/trunk/builders/Ubuntu-10.04-x64/builds/1452/steps/fuzz-menagerie/logs/stdio
for a description of the problem. 

The reason for this is, that the fuzztest obviously does not load the SercosIII
plugin. Therefore adding the heuristic dissector in openSAFETY fails.

The attached patch will fix this, by adding a check in
proto_register_opensafety. The check will handle the situation in one of two
ways:

- If WIRESHARK_ABORT_ON_DISSECTOR_BUG is set, a Dissector Bug  will be
reported, and execution therefore stopped
- If WIRESHARK_ABORT_ON_DISSECTOR_BUG is not set, a warning will be displayed.

It is necessary to note, that the UDP communication for the SercosIII
communication will be dissected in any case, as this does not involve the
SercosIII dissector.
