The following appears to reliably create a GUI crash scenario in Wireshark 2.0:

- Create a packet capture using dumpcap on a server running Wireshark 1.8.6.
- Ensure that the traffic captured includes some Corba traffic, GIOP protocol
(in my examples, TCP 15000).
- Download the resulting capture file to a laptop running Wireshark 2.0 on
Windows.
- Attempt to read the file, either using GTK/Legacy or Qt, in Windows.

I can also say that the following appear to be true based on testing:
- The packet capture file can be read successfully with Tshark on the laptop
running 2.0.
- The file can be read without crashing in Wireshark 2.0 GUI as soon as I save
it with a '!giop' -Y filter in Tshark into a new file to get rid of any GIOP
traffic.
- The crash happens whether the file is pcap or pcapng file format.

Unfortunetly, I cannot include the packet contents due to confidentiality. It
was GIOP version 1.2 payload, simple request/reply traffic. I can also say that
the scenario appears to be 100% reproduceable in my environment. Also note, I
have NOT tested this in Linux environments.
