I'm sending and receiving TCP packets.  But, it seems that the tvbuffs are
truncating my packet.

The packet starts out with a length of 168 bytes, but when I do a 
tvb_length(tvb), it returns 92 bytes.  This is at the top level, before
any subsets are made.

Any ideas?  It's very strange, since it is at the beginning of the 
dissector (I'm sure I'm not dissecting right later on, but should that
impact the initial tvb_length call?)

Any suggestions would be appreciated.  


P.S.  Now that I look closer, tvb_length is ALWAYS returning 92, even though
the buffer size is varying, but always more than 92 bytes.
