Close, but you should also look for "old_rpc_init_proc_table", which
finds "packet-nfs.c", and "old_heur_dissector_add()", which finds
"packet-yhoo.c".

It might also miss old-style dissectors that are called directly (not
through dissector tables, heuristic dissector lists, or handles); I
don't know if there are any of them.
