The fuzz tester keeps failing with this file:

stderr follows:

tshark: The file "/dev/shm/buildbot/clangcodeanalysis/menagerie-fuzz/fuzz-2012-03-02-17845.pcap" appears to be 
damaged or corrupt.
(pcapng: interface index 1 is not less than interface count 1.)

The source file itself is fine (well it no longer aborts for me after r41325), but running it through the fuzz tester 
fails every time.  Looks like editcap needs some PCAPNG smarts to avoid corrupting the non-packet parts.  (Or Wiretap 
needs to not give the non-packet parts to editcap.)

...or my recent changes to wiretap/pcapng.c broke something, or....

I'll try to look at that today.

(BTW, why aren't the fuzz failures being turned into bugs?)
