I doubt you had the *same* thing happen.  ("Ethereal explodes" is not
the same thing.  Ethereal will die if you send it "kill -ABRT", too, but
that's not the same thing....)

You may have had *another* print failure, but not the failure he saw, as
that failure is in the code that's looking at protocol tree information
to figure out what text to print, not in the code that's actually
printing it.

Ethereal won't explode in that particular fashion.

When I did a "print to command" and specified the command "bzqqxfzmt",
Ethereal just exited - it didn't crash in the same place it crashed for
him.
