I think this is a strong argument to move away from the export
definition in DEF file to a decoration in the header file. With the
prefix like i.e. WIRESHARK_API(1) you can decorate any function that is
intended to be public available.

I wonder if there's a way to do this by looking at whether the function is declared static or not.
