 Jeff, I see still same errors with your patch:

The problem as I understood it now is that after linking
epan/.libs/libwireshark.so still misses symbols from wiretap:

 $ readelf -Ws epan/.libs/libwireshark.so | grep 'mpa_padding'
        64: 00000000     0 NOTYPE  GLOBAL DEFAULT  UND mpa_padding
131009: 00000000     0 NOTYPE  GLOBAL DEFAULT  UND mpa_padding

And that's Ok as this is DSO which could have UND symbols. But this DSO should
contain dependency on libwiretap.so, which is missed:

$ ldd epan/.libs/libwireshark.so
        libgmodule-2.0.so.0 => /usr/lib/libgmodule-2.0.so.0 (0xb6565000)
        libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0xb6561000)
        libglib-2.0.so.0 => /usr/lib/libglib-2.0.so.0 (0xb64a0000)
        libpcre.so.0 => /usr/lib/libpcre.so.0 (0xb6478000)
        libgnutls.so.13 => /usr/lib/libgnutls.so.13 (0xb6408000)
        libtasn1.so.3 => /usr/lib/libtasn1.so.3 (0xb63f7000)
        libgcrypt.so.11 => /usr/lib/libgcrypt.so.11 (0xb63a7000)
        libgpg-error.so.0 => /usr/lib/libgpg-error.so.0 (0xb63a2000)
        libcrypto.so.0.9.8 => /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.8 (0xb6256000)
        libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0xb6231000)
        libz.so.1 => /lib/libz.so.1 (0xb621e000)
        libpthread.so.0 => /lib/libpthread.so.0 (0xb6207000)
        libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0xb60d5000)
        /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x80000000)
        libnsl.so.1 => /lib/libnsl.so.1 (0xb60be000)

You see, no wiretap in the output. And this is what is broken here. And that's
why linker does not manage to find that symbols. Thank you for your attention.
