There is no fix other than recompiling your plugin for 0.10.11 (or going
back to Ethereal 0.10.10).
The problem is that your dissector is expecting a different layout of
some
proto.h structure compared to what ethereal 0.10.11 is actually passing
him
along.
so *ptr->p_id (or any other field of that sturcture) is now referencing
another part of memory from that structure.

super! is there a [quick, or not so much] fix? other than hunting for a
0.10.10 rpm?
I'm trying to track down what's happening here, and what field is not -1
or 0 when it gets to that point...
