Any ideas what to do  with this?  The patched version seems to work
equivalently to the current version that doesn't use XML for the TLVs.  The
immediate issue seems to be where the XML should be installed. It is
currently written (during a 'make install' to the data direction, e.g. on my
machine here /usr/local/share/wireshark/plugins/wimaxasncp).  Should it
instead go in the plugins folder with the plugin itself?  I couldn't find
any other precedents for plugins installing extra files.  Does this seem to
be acceptable? If so, I'll add the entry needed to wireshark.nsi and check
it in tomorrow.

I don't think anyone disagrees that it can become a built-in dissector once
it and the WiMAX standard matures a bit more.

Martin
