        Changed paths:
           M /trunk/epan/tvbuff.c

        As suggested by Jakub: don't ep_alloc buffers for TVBs, use
    g_malloc()'d
        memory with tvb-free-callback.

        Fixes one of the "read after free" warnings from Valgrind
    reported in
    https://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=8197 and the one
    reported
        in https://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=8653

      ------------------------------------------------------------------------


I don't think this one was necessary in 1.8, since it doesn't have
Jakub's work on shrinking the ep scope that I remember, but it won't hurt.

Oops, yeah, that's a good point. But, you're also right that it certainly won't hurt.
