it is not a single TCP segment.....it is more like "packet 1--ack_sent--packet 2".

Yes, I know - the multiple-PDUs-in-a-single-TCP-segment case is, as I said, an *additional* case that tcp_dissect_pdus() handles, in addition to the PDU-split-across-two-TCP-segments case.

the information is split across packet 1 and 2.
would this help here?

Yes, as I said it would.
