As Rich said, I did hit something like this before.  There were actually
2 reasons why I hit a similar problem:
#1: most libraries that ethereal uses have their own copies 
    (usually modified forms) on the ethereal web-site.  The problem I
    hit was from the fact that I was not using the custom version of
    zlib.
#2: like you said, inclusion of winsock.h before winsock2.h
