If you re-run autogen.sh, you will overwrite all the work done to 
epan/dissectors/Makefile.in...

...with the results of changes made to epan/dissectors/Makefile.common. 
 autogen.sh causes automake to be run to generate Makefile.in files.

I.e., if you have enough tools to be able to run autogen.sh (this 
includes autoconf, automake, and libtool), you *don't* need to modify 
any Makefile.in files - those are generated from Makefile.am and 
Makefile.common files.

And if you don't have enough tools to be able to run autogen.sh, you 
might not be able to add new dissectors.
