...although a lot of "Windows development" of Wireshark is really "UN*X development", given that
1) we're using a toolkit originally developed for UN*X+X11 (GTK+);
2) GLib, also originally being for UN*X, provides macros etc. to wrap some of Microsoft's C-library "look sort of line UN*X to make it easier to port stuff from UN*X" routines, and provides some other portability helpers;
3) the cases where we *do* make Win32 calls directly are largely hidden from most of the code in Wireshark.
