Yes I should have been clearer in my initial description. 
My suggestion with an extra parameter giving the hash table address is also working fine, so I do not have a strong 
feeling either way (the changed parameter is faster to do but might not be the best long term solution).

Unless there's some compelling reason for them *not* to be in a dynamic library, I think making libcodec a dynamic 
library the best long-term solution.

If possible I would like to have this fixed for Wireshark 2.0.1 but I wonder if such change is compatible with our 
usual policy to keep APIs constant (does it apply when they are buggy?).

Making it a dynamic library wouldn't change the API.
