If you try this with wireshark-1.6.4 it will hang with the "Closing File!"
dialog displayed.  If you apply the patch "Call cf_close() in cf_open() instead
of cf_callback_invoke()+cf_reset_state" it does not hang, but does not behave
correctly. 

To reproduce:

0. start with a file in.pcap and a copy foo.pcap
1. wireshark.exe in.pcap
2. Ctrl+Shift+s to save-as, double-click foo.pcap, OK to overwrite.
Wireshark used to hang at "Closing file!".  Now it does not hang, but you
cannot see the packet list.  At this point in 1.6.2 you would see the packet
list and the titlebar would change to foo.pcap.
