   Changed paths:
      M /trunk/epan/tvbuff.c

   As suggested by Jakub: don't ep_alloc buffers for TVBs, use g_malloc()'d
   memory with tvb-free-callback.

   Fixes one of the "read after free" warnings from Valgrind reported in
   https://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=8197 and the one reported
   in https://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=8653

I don't think this one was necessary in 1.8, since it doesn't have Jakub's work on shrinking the ep scope that I remember, but it won't hurt.
