Greetings,

Most probably by omission, the MPLS dissector does not currently register
itself in the "ppp.protocol" dissector table. As a result, PPP frames carrying
MPLS-labeled packets are dissected only to the frame level, and their contents
(the MPLS label itself, and the following packet) are displayed only as data.

The attached patch (basically a trivial addition of two dissector_add_uint()
lines to the packet-mpls.c) corrects this error. While the patch is produced
against the SVN version of the packet-mpls.c, I believe this fix is so trivial
it could be safely included/backported into the current stable version as well.

Thank you!

Best regards,
Peter
