Wireshark-dev: [Wireshark-dev] my added dissectors don't appear in the Makefile

Im just wrapping up development on my enhancements and new
dissectors for wireshark, and while preparing my patch set, I'm
testing it by applying it to a virgin tarball.

The developer instructions say I just had to add my src files
to epan/dissectors/Makefile.common, and then I run
'configure' and make.

But the resultant epan/dissectors/Makefile doesn't contain
references (to compile/link) the my dissectors (that I added
to Makefile.common.  This is driving me NUTS!

I can't figure out why my virgin test case isn't including _my_
dissectors.  It seems that configure writes the makefile,
but I can't figure out how/where its done, or whats missing
that its not doing it right.

(Then again, on my test machine, if I remove my entry from
Makefile.common, ./configure; make;  my entry isn't removed
either.)


Any clues would be welcome (for my sanity).

TIA
