The obvious solution for now is to remove the comments that are
getting falsely picked up as function definitions, but the better fix
is to the make-dissector-reg scripts. Is it valid for there to be two
register functions in a file, or could the scripts simply limit to one
entry per file? Or someone who groks the regexes could fix them to
ignore lines that are commented out...



See checkAPIs.pl for a regex & code which removes all the comments from a .c file before doing various checks...
