I addressed the first warning of that sort with

        https://code.wireshark.org/review/13198

by moving the *definition* out of the header into a source file, leaving only a *declaration* in the header.  That way, 
you don't get unused tables in compilers that don't optimize it out and you don't get warnings from GCC.
