Build Information:

When trying to export a subset of packets from a capture file to a different
capture file Wireshark tells me that it can't be done (see attached screenshot)
and that I should choose a different file name. This makes no sense since I
already chose a different name, so it is not like I'm trying to overwrite the
original.

This only seems to happen if I try to write the new file into the **same**
directory as the original, because if I save with the exact same name to a
different directory it works right away. Looks like the "we need to make sure
the original isn't overwritten" routine needs a little fine tuning ;-)

BTW sorry if this is a duplicate bug report; I didn't find any when I searched
and the "Possible Duplicates" list only had one from 0.99 which I guess is
outdated.
