An SNMPv2 trap with a Varbind of Syntax Counter32 and value (decimal) 1000 has the following data for that Counter64:

	46 02 03 e8

Ethereal v0.9.16 dissects this as:

	Value: Length is 2, should be 8

Is this correct behaviour?  Why should the Counter64 value have to be fixed length in the trap?

(Note: the same behaviour occurs with an SNMP GET)
