           Summary: Can't stop a  live capture if network name resolution is

Enabling network name resolution causes Wireshark to become completely
unresponsive during a live capture.  You can not stop the capture (at least not
via the toolbar button).  Attempting to stop the capture via the “stop
capture” button results in messages such as these in the console window:

10:42:30 CaptureChild Warn sync_pipe_stop: forcing child to exit
10:44:47 CaptureChild Warn signal_pipe_capquit_to_child: 10 header: error
Invalid argument
10:44:57 CaptureChild Warn signal_pipe_capquit_to_child: 10 header: error
Invalid argument
10:44:58 CaptureChild Warn signal_pipe_capquit_to_child: 10 header: error
Invalid argument
10:45:03 CaptureChild Warn signal_pipe_capquit_to_child: 10 header: error
Invalid argument
10:45:03 CaptureChild Warn signal_pipe_capquit_to_child: 10 header: error
Invalid argument

The only way I was able to stop the capture was to quit Wireshark (I clicked
the upper-right corner close [X] to stop it.)
