 And as I explained, I cannot guarantee you that you have any chance to
have it working. We would need to get a feedback from the Wireshark
developers working on Lua.

Hack make_reg.pl to replace:
print H "extern void wslua_register_classes(lua_State* L);\n";
print H "extern void wslua_register_functions(lua_State* L);\n";
by something like:
print H '#include "ws_symbol_export.h"' . "\n\n";
print H "WS_DLL_PUBLIC void wslua_register_classes(lua_State* L);\n";
print H "WS_DLL_PUBLIC void wslua_register_functions(lua_State* L);\n";

But again it could be a dead end. Any reason for not using a tap?
