The display filter code _does_ call inet_aton() via
epan/addr_resolv.c:get_host_ipaddr(). This code has been in place for a very
long time, and used to work as Rich expected IIRC. According to gdb on my
laptop, inet_aton() in Wireshark is returning 0 for values that it shouldn't,
e.g. "10". If I feed the same values to a small test program that calls
inet_aton() it works correctly.

BTW, Rich, can you check the "tone" knob on your keyboard? It seems that you
may have inadvertently bumped it, and cranked it all the way up to
"condescend."
