Description of problem: Wireshark was reported to crash due after triggering a debug trap when attempting to dissect iSeries traffic. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Wireshark 0.99.5 Additional info: This is fixed in upstream revision 21034. I was not able to reproduce this on an x86_64 architecture box, nor have I tried on i386. Moreover I can not imagine a situation when a bug would result into getting a TRAP signal other than careful and targeted explotation -- but as this is not the case I am probably missing something.
