I'm curious if anyone has tried WireShark under Max OS X Leopard?

See comment #2, which notes a bug filed at Apple against the Leopard X11
server (which might be where the problem lies), a bug filed against
Pango (which is probably not where the problem lies), and a bug filed
against Cairo (which might be where the problem lies). It might also be
in GTK+, or possibly even in Wireshark, although it's not clear what
Wireshark would be doing wrong.
Workaround: open the Preferences for X11.app, tell it to use "Thousands"
rather than "Millions" of colors, quit X11.app, and try again (note:
Leopard launches X11.app on demand, so you don't need to restart X11.app
after quitting it).
