["Falk Hayn" <Falk.Hayn@xxxxxx>]

Dear Ladies and Sirs,

pls. find a backtrace from active debugger session:

Who has an idea what the root cause of the 1st "dangerous looking" message
in the backtrace may be ?
(Well, runnig a pgm in debugger may create bogus msgs, but this looks really
true... ;-)  :

#7  0x7a557a28 in proto_tree_set_ether (fi=0x6, value=0x46b <Error reading
address 0x46b: Bad address>) at proto.c:1442

Who can give advice�s to drill down the problem further ?


Full backtrace under running debugger.
