I've updated the version of GNUTLS in the wireshark-win32-libs

slow startup problem (it works for a Vista desktop here, at least).
Please remember to run "nmake -f makefile.nmake setup" if you're
developing on Windows.

Thank you thank you thank you! Yes, it helps (me, at least): startup times have gone back to a reasonable few seconds ("Init dissectors" now takes 2-3 seconds instead of 30!).
