Hi,
i am expierencing etherreal hangs on tcpdump dumps with default snaplen.
I wondered a bit as i made 3 independent traces wich i tried to load into
ethereal. All stop loading on the first packet ( I analysed this with
editcap and stripped all packets except the first ).

As it seems to happen reproducable - Does anyone else see this ? - My ethereal
just stops on loading and consumes 100% CPU time in an tight loop it seems.
(Strace doesnt give anything)
