Actually I'm not sure why you got problems when trying to rebuild register.c.
In your specific case there was probably no need to rebuild anayway it since you didn't do changes that
would require register.c to rebuilt.
On what OS are you doing the build on?
The MSDOS windows on Windows 98 doesn't support long lines as I remember, but I think that that cmd.exe on Win2000 works with longer lines.
Actually in my case I'm using Python and then Python is used to rebuild register.c instead of bash/grep/sed
Python should be faster:
Éxtract fromn RADME.win32
"The Makefile.nmake supplied with the Ethereal distribution will, if
PYTHON is defined in config.nmake, attempt to make register.c with
Python, since it is much much much faster than the shell version. The
reason it is faster is because the shell version launches multiple
processes (grep, sed) for each source file, multiple times. The Python
script is one process. This matters a lot on Win32."
But maybe you will even get problems even when using Python if the shell you are doing the build from isn't supporting long lines.
I really don't know.
