As promissed a while ago,

The new implemenation of the counters tree.

Now it is an API for dissectors.

stats_tree.patch is made of few files:

ROOT/epan/stats_tree.c -- the common code for the stats_tree 
ROOT/epan/stats_tree.h -- the API for dissectors 
ROOT/epan/stats_tree_priv.h -- the API for implementations
ROOT/gtk/stats_tree_stat.c -- the GTK implementation
ROOT/tap-stats_tree.c  -- the tethereal implementation

in eth_udp_stats_tree.patch you'll find the stats_tree code used
by packet-eth and packet-udp, others to come soon. 

There are still some isues to fix:

- a very poor  GTK1 implementation  that uses a textbox to output the
same text that the text tap uses is there but the code has never been
compiled (I tried to setup a gtk1 environment but failed)

- a crash when closing the window which I have not figured out how it does:

Program received signal EXC_BAD_ACCESS, Could not access memory.
0x00016d38 in window_destroy (win=0x0) at ui_util.c:524
524       if(!GTK_WIDGET_NO_WINDOW(win) && GTK_WIDGET_VISIBLE(win)) {
(gdb) bt 5

#3  0x0070a4cc in signal_emit_unlocked_R ()
#4  0x00709704 in g_signal_emit_valist ()
(More stack frames follow...)
 
So far I have not being able to figure out why it crashes.
