Yes - it's assuming that it's being handed a tvbuff containing the FCS, *even if the dissector for the link layer

while ago, where the Ethernet dissector wasn't removing the FCS if it knew it was there, so perhaps that code was 
written during the period where that bug was present.  I will remove that code from the PN dissector and leave behind 
a comment explaining why there is no FCS handling code there.

OK, done.  Try it with the current SVN version of Wireshark.

BTW, is there a spec available for PROFINET Real-Time packets, for non-PROFINET members, either for free or for a 
not-too-high fee?
