This is all in wireshark auto-generated code. In tools/wireshark/src it
has auto-generated packet-libvirt.c containing

static void
dissect_libvirt(tvbuff_t *tvb, packet_info *pinfo, proto_tree *tree)
{
...
}


The dissector_t type though is defined as

typedef int (*dissector_t)(tvbuff_t *, packet_info *, proto_tree *, void *);


So there's the wrong return type and a missing arg. Seems wireshark
code generator is simply broken.

Daniel
