Parser syntax error with empty ASN sequence description

I wanted to build an awesome place for people to discuss module specific issues, but I don't have any more time for this, and there are much better places to discuss Perl-related issues. I'd recommend asking your question on Stack Overflow or on Perl Monks.
If you are looking for a Perl tutorial or Perl-related news, I hope these links will serve you well.

Hi all !
I have to work with a protocol containing an empty sequence description:

DialogueCheck ::= [PRIVATE 360] SEQUENCE { }

Convert::ASN1 can't handle such description, I got a "syntax error }" from parser.pm.
Is it a bug ? An ASN restriction ? Or is there something wrong with the description ?
I tried to improve parser.y to add LBRACE RBRACE, without success... I have to learn a lot about byacc.

Thanks for yours answers/propositions.
Jerome.
