is the current version (this means the one from CVS) of tethereal OK?


Doesn't seem so.


When I start tethereal (on MacOS X) it generates a segfault, because
wtab_get_bytes_dumped is called with a NULL pointer argument from
line 618 of wiretab/file.c, which is called from line 933 of tethereal.

Could someone verify if this happens also on other platforms or is it
a MacOS X problem? Currently I do not have access to another OS
to do it myself.


Happens here on Linux as well (tethereal 0.8.20, with GLib 1.2.9, with libpcap 0.7, with libz 1.1.3, with UCD SNMP 4.2.1).
