I don't know that any of the regular devs have a Chinese-language setup. I have
a VM I can convert, but I've never played with Windows' language settings
before, so it might take me a few tries.

If you want to start poking around with the code (you built from source, so I'm
assuming some knowledge), I suspect that this isn't actually a bug in the
Radius dissector but in the GUI. My guess is that if some of the bytes to
display in the bottom pane match one of the chinese-language unicode characters
(UTF-8, UTF-16?) then the pane breaks, but I have no way to tell.

It's also possible that it's not a bug in Wireshark, but a bug in the GTK
toolkit which we use [1]. If you're feeling adventurous you could try writing a
trivial GTK app to reproduce without wireshark at all.
