Running »tshark -G values« on my Arch Linux system segfaults at precisely the
same place each and every time:

[0 mbunkus@chai-latte ~] tshark -G values|head
V       ieee17221.message_type  0       ENTITY_AVAILABLE
V       ieee17221.message_type  1       ENTITY_DEPARTING
…
V       btsdp.service_uuid      0x1800  Generic Access Profile
V       btsdp.service_uuid      0x1801  Generic Attribute Profile
zsh: segmentation fault (core dumped)  tshark -G values
[139 mbunkus@chai-latte ~]

Unfortunately I cannot easily build newer versions from git's master-1.10
branch due to Arch using Python 3 as /usr/bin/python, and the .py scripts
included in Wireshark's build process simply don't run with Python 3 (TabErrors
and similar issues).

I have confirmed, though, that the bug does not appear with tshark built from
git's master branch.
