Why not use a value_string here:

static char*
message_type(guint8 type) {
    switch (type) {
        case EPMD_ALIVE:
            return "Alive";
        case EPMD_PORT_PLEASE:
            return "Port Please";


Also, could you attach a sample capture either here or to the Wiki?

One more thing that would be a Good Thing would be if this dissector were a
"new style" dissector (that is, it could return the number of bytes it
successfully dissected as EPMD or 0 if it thinks the packet is not EPMD).  Its
port number is registered, but you never know if someone's going to set up a
web server on that port (and then capture that web traffic with Wireshark)...
