yup, that seems fine. Sorry again for overlooking these - it's quite hard to spot them with a compiler that doesn't complain :(.


There's an assertion violation - it was causing a crash when the assertion was done with g_assert(), but dissectors should use DISSECTOR_ASSERT() so that, while dissection of the packet that provokes the dissector bug is aborted, procesing the capture file isn't. I've checked in a change to make it do so.

See bug 508:

    http://bugs.ethereal.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=508

which has a capture file that provokes the problem attached.

Indeed. Sorry about that - try this patch. Looks like that will fix bugs 509 and 510 too.
