I've made a similar change for the gtk directory, where the things were even worse.

The change broke UNIX builds; I've checked in a fix.

What do you mean with Note1?

"README.developer" used to say that you add the name of the ".c" file for your dissector to the "DISSECTOR_SRC" macros in "Makefile.am" and "Makefile.nmake"; it now says you add it to the "DISSECTOR_SRC" macro in "Makefile.common".

(It should also say what you need to do with any ".h" files for your dissector, although it should also probably note that you shouldn't use a ".h" file unless either

	1) your dissector is exporting information to other code in Ethereal

or

	2) the header file is generated from some other file.)
