The only ws_load_library calls I found are:

	airpcap_loader.c:    if((AirpcapLib = ws_load_library("airpcap.dll")) == NULL)
	nio-ie5.c:      HINSTANCE h = ws_load_library("wininet.dll");
	ui/gtk/main.c:  ws_load_library("riched20.dll");

which all pass string constants, so that *shouldn't* happen.  Any idea what the stack trace is for that crash?

In the buildbot, it's also getting

> (wireshark.exe:3500): Gtk-WARNING **: ToolsMenu|_Tools: missing action ToolsMenu|_Tools
>

	...

and if I copy all the .lua files from epan/wslua into the plugins directory and run from the command line, I get similar warnings:

> (wireshark:54301): Gtk-WARNING **: StatisticsMenu|Statistics: missing action StatisticsMenu|Statistics

Is the Lua menu stuff not working with the new menu code?
