ethereal-tap-register.c is a file that's generated by scanning the source files for taps in the gtk directory. Try removing the file and re-running the build, and see if the problem occurs again. If so, send a copy of the ethereal-tap-register.c file to the list, so we can see what the problem is with the script (make-tapreg-dotc) that generates that file.
