Has anyone ever considered building register.c by snooping through the object files using objdump or readelf

	$ objdump
	-bash: objdump: command not found
	$ readelf

As an *alternative*, with the configuration script being able to figure out what tools are available and, *if* any appropriate object tools are available, using them, and otherwise falling back on scanning the source files, it might be worth considering.
