I am vaguely thinking that a redesigned hash structure like what I
introduced to allow me to handle TFTP will allow me to keep state.

I will obviously need to keep more than the source and destination port
numbers, I will also need to keep source and destination IP addreses.

This implies changes, however, to things like dissect_IP, as it will have
to pass along in some structure the source and destination IP addresses.

Any comments?

Regards
