Checked in.

I also checked in a change to free up the exception ID string if one was
allocated; it needs some additional work - you need to catch exceptions,
so that if a dissector throws an exception, we still free the string,
and then the exception has to be rethrown.

Either that or we need to add a cleanup callback to free the string -
and any *other* dynamically-allocated data....
