The 802.11 dissector has the following code:

whdr= &whdrs[0];
It looks like whdrs[1] through whdrs[3] are never used. Should the code
be modified to rotate through each member of whdrs, similar to the
fmtbuf arrays in strutil.c?
Yes, although this would probably make a difference only if you have
802.11 frames encapsulated inside 802.11 frames.
Is there a reason *not* to use ep_ allocation for structures passed to
taps, rather than using fixed-size arrays and rotating through them?
