I just checked in a fix for a bug that happens if you open a capture
file with *no* packets - the problem is that "select_packet()" panics if
it can't find the packet in question, and if there *are* no packets,
it's going to be a little hard for it to find any....

Is "cf->plist" NULL in "select_packet()"?
