Why are there two (currently still) identical instances of the script?

Because Wiretap is currently treated as an independent library, unlike libwireshark which is treated as a part of Wireshark. This means that, for example, $(top_srcdir), in the Wiretap Makefile, refers to the top-level directory for Wiretap, i.e. the wiretap subdirectory, rather than the top-level directory for Wireshark.

We could, I guess, do $(top_srcdir)/../tools/runlex.sh....
