Are you looking at the strings in the cache file or dumping it out, e.g.
with

  import pickle, pprint
  pprint.pprint(pickle.load(open('epan/dissectors/register-cache.pkl')))

?  I can't find anything that might cause duplicates in
make-dissector-reg.py, but it probably wouldn't hurt to check for
duplicates before we write out the lists of routines.
