I believe I've found the problem. It was with a line like:
{ &hf_llrp_field_value_s8, { "Value", PROTO_NAME_LLRP ".field.s8value",
FT_INT8,
BASE_HEX, NULL, 0x00, "llrp field s8
value", HFILL }},
The problem appears to be that I've specified BASE_HEX along with FT_INT8.
Doesn't really make sense, I know, but previously it didn't crash Wireshark
- now it does.
Thanks, Matt

What platform are you developing on, Unix or Windows? Did you get any other
information from the method you used to track down which line it's crashing
on (what method did you use to determine where it was crashing?)?
