Um, did you read my whole message? I'm already well past that point -- hell, I
modeled my call to tcp_dissect_pdus() and the functions it calls after
packet-dns.c. I've got Ethereal to recognize that one packet is a continuation
of a previous PDU, and I appear to have a tvbuff of the appropriate size. The
issue isn't with that, it's with actual disassembly on that tvbuff.
