Statistics > Multicast Streams seem to be broken in 1.0.0. I think it was
broken already in 0.99.8. When receiving multicast streams the dialog still
shows no multicast streams (as it did in earlier releases).

One could try the sample caputure on the following Wiki page
http://wiki.wireshark.org/Multicast_streams

When bringing up Statistics > Multicast Streams on this sample capture, no
multicast streams are shown either.

One could suspect that the reason for the broken Multicast Streams statistics
is due to the change of formatting the MAC address. Now the MAC address gets
formatted with IPv4mcast_XX:YY:ZZ. I think that it worked up until this change
was made in the formatting of the MAC address.
