I.e., with three plugins that you (or somebody else) wrote (as opposed to plugins that are part of the Wireshark distribution)?

Perhaps one of your plugins is listing an ett_ value twice in the array it's passing to proto_register_subtree_array() ("the subtree item type has already been assigned"), or perhaps you didn't initialize the ett_ value to -1 when you declared it ("was not initialized to -1").

Perhaps Wireshark 1.0.3 didn't check for that particular development error, so it let the code get away with it.
