I just tried it using my source build of Wireshark from SVN and it
worked using Command+Shift+4 then hitting space bar and clicking in
the Wireshark (for X11) window. However, the packet list (existing
one; not the new one) has some sort of grainy appearance to it. The
text isn't very sharp at all. It looks like it went through a fax
machine at a low resolution.
I saw something similar on my 10.5.8 MacBook Pro at home when I used
Grab - except that only the topmost packet's row was showing in the
packet list pane; the rest of the pane was blank. I also saw the "low-
res" font.
If, however, I use Grab on a version of OS X that might already be
available in New Zealand (so if you're anywhere west of New Zealand,
don't read this message until after midnight :-)):

it appears to work, both with a built-from-SVN version and 1.2.1.
However:
1) those are different builds of Wireshark (the built-from-SVN
version isn't up-to-date)...
2) ...built on different versions of the OS...
3) ...possibly with different versions of GTK+...
3) ...with a different capture file...
4) ...and with a different set of coloring rules...
5) ...on a machine that might have a different video adapter (iMac at
work rather than MacBook Pro at home)...
...so it's not *necessarily* a case of "fixed in the Big White Cat".
I'll see whether I can find anything about bugs involving Grab and X11.
