Wireshark · Ethereal-dev: Re: [Ethereal-dev] Alternate techniques for building register.c

[ronnie sahlberg <ronniesahlberg@xxxxxxxxx>]

on platforms where nm is available i think even better would be
to run nm on libethereal.a  and then just grep for the appropriate symbols.

register.c would have to be linked with explicitely though and can no
longer be part of libethereal.a though.
