Build Information:
# wireshark -v
wireshark 1.6.5 (SVN Rev Unknown from unknown)

Copyright 1998-2012 Gerald Combs <gerald@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> and contributors.
This is free software; see the source for copying conditions. There is NO
warranty; not even for MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

Compiled (64-bit) with GTK+ 2.24.8, with GLib 2.31.8, with libpcap (version
unknown), with libz 1.2.5, with POSIX capabilities (Linux), with libpcre
(version unknown), with SMI 0.4.8, without c-ares, without ADNS, with Lua 5.1,
without Python, with GnuTLS 3.0.9, with Gcrypt 1.5.0, with MIT Kerberos, with
GeoIP, with PortAudio V19-devel (built Jan  3 2012), with AirPcap.

Running on Linux 3.2.5-desktop-1.mga2, with libpcap version 1.2.1, with libz
1.2.5, GnuTLS 3.0.11, Gcrypt 1.5.0, without AirPcap.

Built using gcc 4.6.2.

--
running 'wireshark -k -i -' or the more suited 'wireshark -X
stdin_descr:libpcap -k -i -' results in a dialog stating the followin:

Unknown message from dumpcap, try to show it as a string: 
GLib-CRITICAL **: g_async_queue_push: assertion `queue' failed
GLib-CRITICAL **: g_async_queue_pop: assertion `queue' failed
GLib-CRITICAL **: g_async_queue_pop: assertion `queue' failed
Child dumpcap process died: Segmentation violation

note that the wiki example:
>mkfifo /tmp/pipe
>ssh user@remote-host "tshark -w - not port 22" > /tmp/pipe
>wireshark -k -i /tmp/pipe

doesn't work either, probably for the same reason.

ps: I'm on Mageia Cauldron
