That function call to register_tap_listener_gtk_cl_http_stat() went away 
a few revs back when the feature I've been working on moved from the 
statistics menu to the file -> export menu.  The entry should have been 
removed from wireshark-tap-register.c by the makefiles automatically.  
Glad it's working for you now and thanks for the report.
