i've committed a fix in SVN #28058.

There was an uninitialized variable which would sometimes cause a crash
depending upon the history of "capture lifetime" memory allocation and
de-allocation.

This memory is freed and (and is available for re-allocation) essentially each
time a new capture file is read.

If you want to try the fix in your Red Hat environment, you'll need to rebuild
Wireshark from a current source package (SVN 28058 or later) which can be
obtained from http://www.wireshark.org/download/automated/src/  .

(or: You can wait for the next Wireshark release. I'll queue this fix for
Wireshark 1.0.8).

Thanks for taking the effort to provide a repeatable example of the crash !
