I had in mind that we already have GPL V2 only files in Wireshark 
before, but I may be wrong here.


I can remove the two "GPL V2 only" files, as this is "only" a CRC16 
expert check here. That is the CCITT implementation of CRC16 which is 
not already existing in Wireshark AFAIK. Having the CCITT CRC16 in 
Wireshark would be probably a good idea anyway.

Some time ago when I actually implemented the stuff I couldn't find a 
GPL V2 or later implementation.

Question is: How to continue?
