Wireshark fails to parse timestamp of certain ICMP packets, merging the value
with the data segment.

Example bugged packets are in the pcap attached (at least numbers 2216, 39736,
90108).

I believe the guilty code part in packet-icmp.c is the one commented with
1504                 /* Interpret the first 8 bytes of the icmp data as a
timestamp
1505                  * But only if it does look like it's a timestamp.
1506                  *
1507                  * FIXME:
1508                  *    Timestamps could be in different formats depending
on the OS
1509                  */

I however do not have enough knowledge of the project to resolve the issue.
