I have found 3 dissectors that call conversation_new() without a preceding call
to find_conversation():

1) packet-bittorrent.c
2) packet-dtpt.c
3) packet-quake.c

I don't believe this should ever be allowed, and I would concur with didier in
his follow-up post
(http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev/200809/msg00075.html) that
refactoring these functions is a wise idea.
