Oh, dear.  You appear to have chosen a TCP option number already "assigned" to
the TCP Packet Mood option:

    http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5841

and somebody contributed a Wireshark dissector change for that particular April
1 RFC.

Implementing April 1 RFCs is perhaps not the best idea, cute though it may be;
option 25 is listed as "Unassigned", so we shouldn't be trying to dissect it.

Now, admittedly, it appears that 253 and 254 are probably your best choice for
experimental TCP options, as they're explicitly reserved for that:

    http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4727 (see section 7.3)

but we should still get rid of the dissection of option 25.

Now, why the linker isn't finding _syriac_assign_properties is another matter. 
Perhaps something's broken in the version of Pango on the Leopard buildbot.
