What was causing the crashes? If it was caused by ciphered packets being interpreted as non-ciphered, with the dissector crashing because the data it was dissecting wasn't a valid non-ciphered packet, that could also happen with bad packets, so those crashes need to be fixed.

This is in fact true. The crashes appreared in the GSM_A and in the SNDCP. Until now I havn' tracked it down. I will do some efforts into this direction and will reply to your mail once more
