Idea looks good to me - two notes below. Check for typos in commit message too :)

I find the following implementation cleaner, less if()-ed code?

void rte_service_finalize(void)
{
	if (!rte_service_library_initialized)
		return;

	if (rte_services)
		rte_free(rte_services);
	if (lcore_states)
		rte_free(lcore_states);

	rte_service_library_initialized = 0;
}

The version.map file functions should be in alphabetical order;
In this case, add between dump() and get_by_id()

        rte_service_dump;
+       rte_service_finalize;
        rte_service_get_by_id;
