Standard C doesn't have a uint24 data type (even C99 doesn't have uint24_t). I
suppose if you're using C on the Datacraft/Harris machines (no relation):

you'd have a 24-bit data type, but most if not all machines capable of running
Wireshark have 8-bit bytes and 32-bit or 64-bit registers.
Wireshark supports 24-bit integral-valued fields - but you put the values into
32-bit variables.
