Hmm, I wasn't able to reproduce this with that option unchecked, but it
happened reliably when I disabled desegmentation.
Here's a patch to fix the crashes, by commenting out a couple of
tvb_free()s. I'm not sure if that would cause a memory leak, or if the
tvbuffs are freed automatically when no longer needed. I've marked them
with XXX until I get some clarification on that.
I also commented out the tvb_set_free_cb(uncompr_tvb, g_free); in
tvbuff.c, since that seems to make the data sources in the byte
inspection pane disappear. I've also marked that with XXX.
chunked_encoding_dissector() also had a minor display bug if
desegmentation didn't wasn't enabled. I've fixed that also (it's the
only thing not marked with XXX ;)
