First of all, thanks for reacting so promptly.

The dispatch table is an array of pointers in a C-program file to be linked
against the libraries.  Initialised is expressed as a usual array declaration
initialised with individual entries given as 

    &some_function

where some_function is declared as extern in the same file.  This methods works
nicely with static linkage, and also with dynamic linkage on a Linux box.
