The code to set up the combo box for filter expressions wasn't checking
whether the list of remembered filter expressions was null before setting
the list.  If you don't have any remembered filter expressions, the list
will be null.

Perhaps GTK+ 2.x silently ignores attempts to set a combo box's list of
popdown strings to a null list, while 1.2[.x] complains.

Have you done any captures with a capture filter?  If not, do so - that
should add the filter to the list and suppress the warning.

I've checked in a fix.
