Sigh. It appears to be running out of virtual memory - which, for OS X, means
either running out of address space or out of disk space (as paging is done to
swap files, not a swap partition).
The crash says
Code Type: X86 (Native)
where "X86" means "32-bit x86", so I suspect you're running out of address
space.
Are the Linux machines on which you're running Wireshark x86-64 machines? If
so, they have a lot more address space to play with, so they're less likely to
run out of it.
We're currently doing 64-bit Snow Leopard builds for 1.4.x and the unstable
1.5.x branch, but, unfortunately, we're not currently offering them as dmgs, as
far as I can tell. We should provide them for Snow Leopard users (I don't
think libpcap or even BPF work right for 64-bit userland in Leopard; BPF
doesn't quite work right for 64-bit userland in Snow Leopard, but the problem
isn't as severe, and there are workarounds in some versions of Snow Leopard
libpcap and workarounds in Wireshark for versions of Snow Leopard without the
libpcap workarounds).
