Not the issue in this bug? Asking valgrind for more information gives:
==7729== Uninitialised value was created by a heap allocation
==7729== at 0x4C2A2DB: malloc (in
/usr/lib/valgrind/vgpreload_memcheck-amd64-linux.so)
==7729== by 0x9551DC0: g_malloc (gmem.c:104)
==7729== by 0x4E3E223: buffer_init (buffer.c:35)
==7729== by 0x4E4693B: wtap_open_offline (file_access.c:551)
==7729== by 0x413693: cf_open (tshark.c:3853)
==7729== by 0x40AE2A: main (tshark.c:1930)
So I think this is probably at least a partial duplicate of bug #9292... I will
dig a little further.
