The capture_xxx() functions are for doing a very quick and dirty dissection of packets while we're capturing traffic, 
so that instead of just showing a count of packets as we capture, we can show a count of particular types of packets.  
Therefore, the right thing to do with invalid packets would be to count them as "other" packets and not bother doing 
any further dissection - just as we do when doing a real dissection.
