Log:
 Prevent potential crash in libsmi.
 From: Vincent Bernat <[email protected]>
Since SVN #32006 was committed, the following messages appear when 
tshark and Wireshark are started.
For Wireshark the messages appear as popup Windows which must be 
dismissed !!
----------

tshark: Stopped processing module SNMP-COMMUNITY-MIB due to error(s) to prevent potential crash in libsmi.
Module's conformance level: 0.
See details at: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=560325

tshark: Stopped processing module SNMP-MPD-MIB due to error(s) to prevent potential crash in libsmi.

Needing to dismiss popup windows each time Wireshark is started is obviously a non-starter. :)
So; What should be done ??  (I know zilch about SNMP MIBS).
