Both packets in this pcap have the same .1p, but they display differently

To reproduce:
Edit -> Preferences -> Layout -> Columns
Add a new column with field type "L2 COS (802.1p)". Apply the change.
Open the attached pcap file.

The first packet is from a RFC2547 traffic stream and the second is from a
martini traffic stream (draft-martini-l2circuit-encap-mpls-08.txt). Every
packet in the Martini stream shows this same anomaly. Both packets in the
attached file have the same 802.1p value, but they display differently. 

For the second (i.e. Martini) packet, the dot1p value shown in the "Packet
List" area (via the newly created column) does not match the value shown in the
"Packet Details" area.

Also I notice tshark also lists the same value as the "Packet List" area in
Wireshark, however tcpdump agrees with the "Packet Details" area of Wireshark -
see below.

$ tshark -e vlan -Tfields -r dot1p-displayerror.pcap 
802.1Q Virtual LAN, PRI: 3, CFI: 0, ID: 501
802.1Q Virtual LAN, PRI: 0, CFI: 0, ID: 901

PRI = 3, 0

$ tcpdump -enr dot1p-displayerror.pcap
