Maybe I'm getting a little closer here... It looks like fgetline is failing when it tries to read from the hosts file. The file pointer returned by eth_fopen(hostspath, "r") in the read_hosts_file function is bad. 

"Bad" in what sense?
If it's null, the open failed - but the current SVN version of Wireshark, at least, checks for that, and just gives up.
