Wireshark-dev: [Wireshark-dev] Dev Wireshark crash after create new profile/quit; Related to "G

Recent Wireshark SVN versions have been crashing as follows:

1. Run Wireshark
2. Create a new profile (Edit ! Configuration Profiles ...)
3. Quit Wireshark

Looking at the crash, it turns out that write_profile_recent() in recent.c is dying when attempting to write a time-format text value
because recent.gui_time_format has a value of -1.

This works in 1.2.0.

Could this issue be related to all the recent
"GTK2-based packet list" changes ??
