Please note the transcribed octal in stack frame #3. The 8-bit characters kept
driving emacs nuts when I c&p'd from the window in which I was running
wireshark, so I had to paste them into an emacs on that window and transcribe.
It's <capital O-acute>\205<capital U-umlaut><mu>iy<capital U-umlaut><mu>Es<capital O-circumflex><mu>\024
on my screen, in case that's actually important to know.
Thanks for the suggestion. I see that it's something from pango...
