I'll try to release Ethereal 0.8.2 tomorrow. But first I'm
trying to track down a bug.

I just got an assert in file.c, line 1223.
The row value passed to select_packet() was 0, so fd ended up NULL.

I'm trying to track down the code path to see why row was 0.
I had been in the Ethereal session for a long time, having set
and unset many display filters. I then started another
capture, with the default options set.

This is the relevant part of the stack trace, BTW:

(And look at the garbage value for 'col' in frame 6 below)
