Wireshark-dev: Re: [Wireshark-dev] [Patch] pragma warning

I dont think it is really realistic to have all autogenerated files
always compile without any warnings.
Maybe we should instead split Makefile.common up into three parts :

First part : normal dissectors

Second part : ANS2WRS generated dissectors  which take extra compile
time flags and definitions to suppress artefacts from the compiler.

Third part : PIDL generated dissectors that once again take extra
compile parameters and definitions.

"Ignore" and "issues a warning" don't quite mesh in my dictionary, but
now I understand what's up I support your solution.
