This appears to be the case.  When I ran the test script by hand, the
"Wireshark capture 10 packets" test popped up the following error (from
capture_loop.c):
  The capture buffer size of 1MB seems to be too high for your machine,
  the default of 1MB will be used.
  Nonetheless, the capture is started.
I rebooted, and now there are no errors (when run by hand, at least).
