The file you attached was just a text file, not an xml file, because "tshark -V
-r traces_athens.0.9.cap > traces.xml" does not produce xml output, but simple
text output.

I'm not sure if you attached the correct trace files or not, but I regenerated
pdml output from your trace file and everything looks OK to me.  Either there
was a bug that was fixed sometime between when this bug report was filed and
now or maybe you forgot to use "-T pdml", or I'm not sure what, but closing as
WORKSFORME.  Feel free to reopen if you still experience a problem.

BTW, I tested using SVN 45053 on Windows 7 64-bit.
