It may be picking up plugins from an older version of Ethereal.

On Windows, recent versions of Ethereal look for plugins in the
"plugins/<version>" subdirectory of the directory in which the
executable resides; in 0.9.0, and in the current version of Ethereal,
"<version>" is 0.9.0.

It may be that there's a binary incompatibility in the plugin interface
between current CVS version of Ethereal and the 0.9.0 version, so 0.9.0
plugins may crash when run with current-CVS ethereal (and *vice versa*).
