At line 1045, before parsing the flow label in an IPHC header, the padding is
inserted by adding bits to the offset before parsing the next field. And at
line 1383, the padding isn't being parsed from the packet, but is instead being
added to the end of the reconstructed IPv6 extension header (in order to
guarantee the 8-byte alignment required by IPv6).

Unfortunately, I cannot at this time, our current 6LoWPAN implementation
doesn't generate these header types yet. I tested the dissector for these types
by repeatedly fuzz testing the example captures until the right header options
appeared. Embarrassingly bad programming, I apologize :)
Thanks,
