The expression (BGP_OSPF_RTYPE_EXT ||BGP_OSPF_RTYPE_NSSA) will always
evaluate to 1.  As well, neither of these constants are defined as flag
values, so a bitwise op was probably not intended either.

Commit log for packet-bgp.c in Ethereal shows that this code originated
from Aamer Akhter, and was later ported to tcpdump by Hannes Gredler.  I
have already received notice from Hannes that he has committed a fix:

http://cvs.tcpdump.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/tcpdump/print-bgp.c

Below is my attempt to fix the code in Ethereal.  Is it correct?  (This is
untested, I don't have a trace to test with.)
