Hi,
I have removed the code from packet-mysql.c. I was probably compiled as a
plugin during development.

While compiling 0.99.2 on Solaris 9, I noticed this warning:

It looks like the symbol in libwireshark is from "packet-mysql.c":

> /* Define version if we are not building wireshark statically */
> #ifndef ENABLE_STATIC
> #include <gmodule.h>
> G_MODULE_EXPORT const gchar version[] = "0.1";
> #endif

A bunch of .c files in "plugins/giop/" also define a (non-static) string 
named "version" which was put in there by "tools/wireshark_gen.py".

Shouldn't all those version strings be static?  Or...
