I have confirmed that wireshark/tshark crash the instant a spanning tree
protocol packet is displayed.  I started a large download and then started a
capture in wireshark with all dissectors turned off.  I stopped the capture
after a few seconds and then searched for the first non-IP packet by using the
display filter "data[12]!=08 || data[13]!=00" and made a mental note of the
packet number (which happened to be 1151).  I then loaded the pcap file in
tshark and noticed that it crashed right after displaying packet number 1150.
