This was due to the handling (deletion) of the files generated by
asn2eth.
The patch attached fixes it by creating a table of unique files at the
time of file deletion. This way, current asn2eth behaviour is not
modified.
I think this was not discovered before, because of the structure of the
asn1 file. But I'm not completely sure.

The camel dissector (packet-camel.[ch]) can be checked-in now.

Olivier.
