Hmm.

Perhaps the similar routines for MAC and IP addresses ("ether_to_str()",
"ether_to_str_punct()", "ip_to_str()", "ip_to_str_buf()",
"ip6_to_str()") should be moved from "epan/packet.c", which is a bit of
a grab-bag of stuff, into "epan/ether-utils.c", "epan/ip-utils.c", and
"epan/ipv6-utils.c"?
