Some news...

the WIN32 definition is done in win32.mak and put into the cvarsdll 
variable.


The content of my win32.mak look like this:

!IFDEF NO_ANSI
noansi = -DNULL=0
!ENDIF

# for Windows applications that use the C Run-Time libraries
cvars      = -DWIN32 $(noansi) -D_WIN32
cvarsmt    = $(cvars) -D_MT -MT
cvarsdll   = $(cvars) -D_MT -D_DLL -MD

# for compatibility with older-style makefiles
cvarsmtdll   = $(cvarsmt) -D_DLL


The compilation of libpcap.c is done in wiretap/Makefile.nmake, and the 
cvarsdll is used here.

The root /Makefile.nmake uses a slightly different mechanism for 
CVARSDLL, which I've copied to wiretap/Makefile.nmake and checked in.

So this might fix your problem, please report your experiences.
