The problem is easily reproducible with this capture simply by enabling the PRP
dissector.  (Yes, I know PRP disabling itself is bad form but it allows us to
actually check in post dissectors--which would otherwise be seen as
prohibitively expensive--though anyone with the MATE plugin also has a post
dissector.)

Anyway, the problem is that PRP is registered as a post dissector and
packet-frame does not catch exceptions thrown by post dissectors.  I don't see
any reason that post dissectors should not be like any other one so I put a
TRY/CATCH sequence around the call to call_all_postdissectors() in rev 25339.
