There was a bug in the version of the sequence-number analysis code in
0.9.6, that could cause it to incorrectly determine which side of a TCP
connection a frame belongs to; that might be the cause of the problems
you're seeing (or it might not; I'd have to see the capture to determine
that).

The bug is fixed in the current CVS version.
