--- Comment #1 from Bill Meier <wmeier@xxxxxxxxxxx> 2011-11-28 15:32:00 EST ---
The crash occurred due to a bad pointer while deep in the middle the code to
display a summary line for a packet.

Unfortunately, after looking at the crash for a while, I wasn't able to
determine why the pointer is bad. 

Can you duplicate the crash ?

If not, we'll probably not be able to determine what happened which eventually
resulted in the crash.

If you can duplicate the crash, please try to do so using the latest Wireshark
1.6.4. If the crash still happens please attach the capture file and the steps
to re-create the crash.

Thanks !

Some technical details:

stack back trace:
 col_fill_in_frame_data(frame_data *fd=<inv_addr?>, col_info *cinfo=<OK>,
col=0)
 show_cell_data_func(...)
 ...

cfile
  .state  = FILE_READ_DONE
  .is_temp_file = 1
  ...
  .frames = 0x00000000    //???
