Hi!

I just updated to ethereal 0.8.16 on HP-UX 10.20. The compilation failed,
because HP-UX has its special shl_* interface and thus HAVE_PLUGINS is
not defined.
In epan/proto.c the call to register_all_plugin_handoffs(); is not
protected by #ifdef HAVE_PLUGINS, so that the link phase fails with
the corresponding unresolved reference.

Thanks for providing this great software,
	Lutz
PS. There is a dlopen emulator for the HP-UX shl_* interface included in
cyrus-sasl (lib/dlopen.c).
