I can't find a pkg-config.exe in the gtk2 bundle. Where can I find it
(version, arch)? Do I need to do something special in the "nmake ... setup"
phase to get it?

Weird, my CMake test system at home has one, but my nmake dev system I have here doesn't have it.  I'll try to find out where it came from.

They are built automagically, i.e. right now I do out of tree builds
on 32 bit arch:
cmake ..\..\trunk 2>&1 | tee cmake.log
cmake --build . 2>&1 | tee build.log
With default cmakeoptions and default config.nmake files (OK, I modified
config.nmake temporarily to pull in gtk2 as well in order to have both
gtk versions to test with).

On my cmake test env, using the VS201 generator and msbuild, building wireshark or tshark is successful without any plugins being built.

I grepped the whole source tree and did not find anything:
jmayer@egg:~/work/wireshark/svn/trunk> grep -ri WTAP_PLUGIN_SOURCES .
jmayer@egg:~/work/wireshark/svn/trunk>


In the main CMakeLists.txt:

W:\Wireshark\trunk>c:\cygwin\bin\grep.exe -ni WTAP_PLUGIN_SOURCES *.txt
CMakeLists.txt:751:set(WTAP_PLUGIN_SOURCES
CMakeLists.txt:1061:            ${WTAP_PLUGIN_SOURCES}
CMakeLists.txt:1080:            ${WTAP_PLUGIN_SOURCES}
CMakeLists.txt:1100:            ${WTAP_PLUGIN_SOURCES}
