I have something odd going on with Ethereal 0.10.8.

Whenever I capture a dump, $SUBJECT pops up when stopping the capture.
*Unless* I select 'update list of packets in real time', in which case no error occurs.

The error also pop up if I try to read any old dump from file.

I am on gentoo (with ACCEPT_KEYWORDS=~x86)  and no patches applied to Ethereal.

   Info about currently installed ebuild:

   * net-analyzer/ethereal-0.10.8
   Install date: Sun Jan  9 11:48:56 2005
