Version 0.7.2 fixes another memory leak, and gets rid of a bottleneck
in file loading. Loading files, especially large files, is much much
faster now. NetBEUI decode support was added. Timeout handling with
the -S option was fixed, as was a bug in the token-ring decoder. A new
-R option was added to give Ethereal a load-time filter capability (as
opposed to capture or display filters).
