Minor problem:

I build wireshark only for gtk2.
For gtk2, a gtk2.tmp directory is created and the Makefile is run from that directory.

This causes the 'cd codecs' below (in gtk Makefile.nmake) to fail.

..\gtk\codecs\codecs.lib: cd codecs <<=== fails since current dir is actually gtk2.tmp
        $(MAKE) /$(MAKEFLAGS) -f Makefile.nmake
        cd ..

I don't really know the correct approach to solve this in a general manner

The correct approach to solve this particular problem is to notice that the codecs do not use any GTK+ code whatsoever, and are not necessarily going to be used only by GTK+-based applications, and move the codecs directory out of the gtk directory.

That's what we've done - it's now a top-level directory. Try building it now.
