There was only one file - "packet-mbtcp.c" - and it appeared to be the
only file that was necessary.

It's already been checked in.  (I made all the functions in
"packet-mbtcp.c" static, as they're not called from outside it, and
added a URL to Schneider's Modbus/TCP home page at

	http://www.modicon.com/openmbus/

I was curious what Modbus was, and a Google search for "Modbus" turned
up that, among other things; it's an industrial automation protocol.)
