Yes that would be the best solution, making sure that all symbols
are prefixed by the protocol name.
This would get rid of a whole bunch of warning messages when compiling
the ASN files due to x509 and pkix1 both exporting essentially the
same symbols.
So that the variables would then be ocsd_Version_vals
I am on vacation now and travelling so I wont be able to look into it
until i get back. Maybe Tomas can look into it?
Such a change to the asn2eth compiler would also likely require all
the asn1/ dissectors to be regenerated (and those things that break
to be fixed).
