as Jeff says assoc should be called connection. I was way too much into
SCTP/M3UA at the time when I came out with that code... :-(

As per the one assoc If you check the code the variable is a pointer
- the assoc is created and indexed at CR 
- the assoc is retrieved from the index from there on
- for cases where the CR is not seen we use a dummy assoc and try to "guess"
the payload

That is if Wireshark does not see the CR of a given connection we do not know
the SSN and try to guess the payload. If that's your case what we need to fix
is RANAP's heuristics (which are known [at least to me] to not be that good...
that's why I wrote the assoc part to begin with).
