It still got some warnings - Jeff Morris' patches fixed them; the
functions

	dissect_ansi_tcap_reject
	dissect_ansi_tcap_re
	dissect_ansi_tcap_rr
	dissect_ansi_tcap_invoke
	dissect_tcap_invoke
	dissect_tcap_rr
	dissect_tcap_reject

need to return "void", not "int".

Also, what is the significance of "asn1_tag_decode_m()"?  The comment
says

/* to make the source file easy to be contributed , override this function */
/* so there is no need to modify asn1.c(with a bug) any more */

Does that mean that "asn1_tag_decode()" in asn1.c is buggy?  If so, then
it should be fixed, not overridden.
