Sounds like a reasonable solution. It would also have the advantage that 
we get a list of generated dissectors, which we currently don't have.

But: Is there a "makefile magic", so you can have different CFLAGS 
settings for the different lists? Remember that we are using implicit 
rules here.

Having three lists shouldn't be difficult to add, but I don't know how 
to get the "compile logic" for it - however, I'm really not an expert on 
this.

If there's a solution for this makefile problem, I think it's the way to 
go ...
