I had a look a the cause of bugzilla #225, #226, #277.

line 258 in epan/packet-lmp.c causes problems:

  LMPF_MSG_SERVICE_CONFIG           =50,

this results in a hole in the enum, causing real problems in line
1028/1030 as this tries to add a hf which just don't exist (e.g. for
message_type 49).

I don't know the correct/intended solution to this...
