It should not dump core as far as all my tests are concerned and Menu_Statistics/ProtocolHierStats work
It needs more testing and there might still be cases where it will crash that will need to be fixed but I feel it will be worth it since it will decrease the time to filter very large capture files dramatically.
Real significant performance boost for very large captures.
(If we cant fix all the problems we can just revert this patch)

1) added _U_ tags in RMT dissectors to suppress "unused parameter" warnings.
2) added a dissector_add_handle("ip.udp", ip_handle) to IP dissector, to
allow the following chain of protocols: IP over UDP over IP. It seems
uncommon, but it's used by implementations of experimental protocols
(e.g. TCP-XM) that run a userspace IP stack (e.g. lwIP) over UDP. The
dissector of IP over UDP must be enabled explicitly using the "decode
as..." window.

Attached please find a small performance optimization to packet-ip.c,
which removes multiple redundant calls to tvb_get_ptr().
Changed srt_addr and dst_addr from char to guchar

NETTL_SUBSYS_NS_LS_ICMPV6 - they don't even have IP headers, so we need
to directly call the ICMP and ICMPv6 dissectors.

include of <resolv.h> in any system header file gets the system
<resolv.h> (needed for builds on Tru64 with GTK+ 1.2[.x]).

Also move ncp222.py, x11-fields, process-x11-fields.pl,
make-reg-dotc, and make-reg-dotc.py.
Adjust #include lines in files that include packet-*.h
files.
