OK, I've made cf_close() not do anything - not even deliver indications to the GUI - if you don't have an open capture 
file, made "wireshark -k" not act as if there's a capture file open until it actually gets told by dumpcap that there's 
a file to be opened, and added a new "attempt to start a capture failed" indication to the GUI and had the statusbar 
code clear out the "capture in progress" indications from the status bar and welcome screen; that appears to have fixed 
the problem you describe.

There may well be other cleanups necessary - I don't guarantee to have caught all the places where routines were being 
expected to do things in addition to the things one might normally expect them to do.
