I've checked in a fix.

Also, do that with "dictionary.dtd".

Note also that the same installation-directory problem exists on
Windows, so, after installing libxml, you'd need to make a "diameter"
subdirectory of the directory in which the Ethereal binary, DLLs, and
configuration files were installed, and move the "dictionary.dtd" and
".xml" files into that subdirectory.

I've checked in what should be a fix for that as well.
