Hello,

Wireshark SVN 34064 will crash if i follow these steps:

1) Open a rather large trace file (so you have time to see the Cancel dialog
box)
2) Wait until file is fully loaded.
3) Click either "Source", "Destination", "Protocol" or "Info" column
4) As the column is being sorted, click the Cancel button.

Wireshark will segfault:

**
ERROR:packet_list_store.c:959:packet_list_compare_records: assertion failed:
(a->fdata->col_text[sort_id])
Aborted
