In order to avoid duplication, I would like to use in the camel
dissector some routines of ISUP dissector, like
"dissect_isup_called_party_number_parameter".

How could I do that while respecting Ethereal's coding standard?

Make it non-static in packet-isup.c, declare it in packet-isup.h, and have the CAMEL dissector include packet-isup.h and call the routine.
