Currently the lmc tracing is not reporting the return from function
lmc_proto_type and this tracing statement is never executed. Fix
this by returning through the end of the function.  Also fix a typo
in the function name lmc_proto_type in the trace message.

Did you take a look at lmc_trace()?  It's total garbage.  It's better
to just delete it.
