OK, the (to me :-) convincing arguments were: More than double the amount

linked into the binaries statically instead of dynamically. Thinking a bit
more about it, I think that the libs built by the autofoo system are some
sort of "convenience" libs, they are not static libs.

Have you thought about how we should handle the autogenerated dissectors? I'm looking at this right now and I'm not quite sure how to do this in a clean fashion. Any ideas?
