(*) See below for an example of wireshark indicating a "malformed packet"
incorrectly. I will also attach a pcap to the bug. 

(*) See here for location of SMS teleservice specification:
http://www.3gpp.org/ftp/specs/archive/23_series/23.040/. The same value of
TP-MTI is used for SMS-DELIVER-REPORT as SMS-DELIVER

       The TP-Message-Type-Indicator is a 2-bit field, located within bits no 0
and 1 of the first octet of all PDUs which can be given the following values:
        bit1    bit0    Message type
        0    0    SMS DELIVER (in the direction SC to MS)    
        0    0    SMS DELIVER REPORT (in the direction MS to SC)    


(*) The dialogue response (visible in the pcap file) indicates that the packet
is a response and also the fact that the teleservice payload is encapsulated in
a TC-End(ReturnResultLast) should mean that wireshark should try to decode this
as a SMS-DELIVER-REPORT and not a SMS-DELIVER
