Yes, as noted in Comment 190, there are about a half dozen generated files that
still have issues (and I see you fixed the recently introduced one in
packet-ouch.c).  I'd be willing to work on the PIDL generator but would prefer
to make sure I'm starting with the correct version.  Also, any hints from those
who have already gone spelunking there would be welcome.  Ideally, only changes
in the Wireshark back end would be required so that it would be easier to
re-merge with the Samba people's code, but I haven't looked into this at all
yet.
