Heh, now I remember that.

I used the name from the draft RFC.

Yeah, that was sloppy. I was cribbing from the SMB dissector, I think and not
paying attention to variables declared outside a TRY block but used within it,
which is where it would matter, I guess.

Sure. Let me fix these few things and add dissection for the ALERT command and
fix one other thing.
