Done.

This also means that if --with-qt was specified, "make distcheck" will use it - and, if it was used with --with-gtk2 or --with-gtk3, "make distcheck" will use both.

*If* it's possible to do so, should we, if no --with-{gtk2,gtk3,qt} option was specified, default to building with the latest version of GTK+ that we have (GTK+ 3 if we have it, GTK+ 2 if we don't), and fail if neither is present (if neither is present, you'd have to use --disable-wireshark, just as you do now)?
