What am I doing wrong with the registration?
Not registering the "mgw" dissector by name in proto_register_mgw(). (No, registering the *protocol* won't register the *dissector*. There is not a one-to-one correspondence between protocols and dissectors; some protocols have more than one dissector. And, no, create_dissector_handle() won't register it by name, either.)
