Certainly a valid point.....

I'll hold off for now.

Interestingly enough, I do note that just about half of the
epan/dissector .c source files do not include stdio.h (and more than
half do not include stdlib.h) and I've not heard of any issues with NULL
& etc (although I don't know if anyone has built Wireshark with GCC 4.3).
