The problem is probably that if you have a header for a protocol, followed by
the payload for that protocol which is a packet for another protocol, that
looks the same in a protocol tree as two packets for the same or a different
protocol - the protocol tree doesn't distinguish between two consecutive chunks
of data which are protocols at the same layer of containment and a chunk of
data which is the header for one protocol followed by a chunk of data which is
the payload for that protocol and a packet for some protocol contained within
the previous protocol. That confuses the protocol hierarchy code, which
assumes the latter is what's happening.
We'd need a capture to see if that's the case here, although we can probably
find captures for the problem as described in the previous paragraph.
