Unfortunately, the result of "proto_registrar_get_name(hfindex)" is the
name of the field being put into the protocol tree, not the name of the
protocol corresponding to the UUID in question.  You'd have to call a
routine in "packet-dcerpc.c" to look up the name of the protocol
corresponding to the UUID.  (Unfortunately, you need the protocol
version for that as well.)
