It may be best then to just let the Wireshark user select such a packet and
choose Decode As -> Gadu-Gadu.

Check the len to see if it is more than 65535 and if so, "return" from the
function you're in to pass control back to Wireshark so it can move on to the
next packet. Since that's a function called from the main dissection function,
have it return something that can indicate to the caller to skip the packet.

It's safe for Wireshark as long as your code doesn't do something like a buffer
overrun when it receives such a packet :).
