I reproduce using the script distributed in the wireshark source:
"./tools/valgrind-wireshark.sh FILE"

The script does a bunch of work setting environment variables, adding extra
parameters etc and automatically hides stdout, so if you're valgrinding from a
build tree it makes life much simpler.

For this bug I have to add -T which adds all the tshark parameters necessary
for building and displaying the complete dissection tree, so my final command
is:

./tools/valgrind-wireshark.sh -T fuzz-2013-10-07-4478.pcap

to see the complete details of leaked memory (basically adding
--leak-check=full to valgrind) add the -l flag as as well, but it should not be
necessary to see the "Invalid read" errors.
