The tshark code appears to be a copy of the one in gui_utils - I
haven't looked too closely, but perhaps they should be deduplicated?
The capture_sync code is interesting, since it treats the failure of
GetExitCodeProcess as effectively an ignorable error. I don't know if
that's indicative of best practice or it's simply another case of not
knowing quite what to do with the return status. I don't have a
problem with converting all three places for consistency, but without
a Windows dev environment all I can really do is speculate.
