Many people have recently reported many problems with the nmake build
process. It seems that these problems come from using
epan/makefile.nmake to compile the DISSECTOR_SUPPORT_SOURCES which are
located in /trunk.
Nmake from MSVC6 puts the object code of the DISSECTOR_SUPPORT_SOURCES
in /epan although Nmake expects the object code in /trunk when it
checkes dependencies. Thus DISSECTOR_SUPPORT_OBJECTS are built every
time even when they are already there.
Nmake Version 1.5 (MSVC 2003 Toolkit) puts the object code of the
DISSECTOR_SUPPORT_SOURCES in /trunk instead.
This makes it impossible to use epan/makefile.nmake for compiling the
DISSECTOR_SUPPORT_SOURCES and to make it work for both versions of nmake.
We have to use /trunk/makefile.nmake for compiling the
DISSECTOR_SUPPORT_SOURCES to solve these issues.
It should also be possible to build ethereal without libethereal.dll again.
Once we have moved all DISSECTOR_SUPPORT_SOURCES into a subdirectory of
epan we can get rid of this patchwork in the nmake makefiles.

There is still a problem with MSVC builds as 3 objects get built twice (once
at the top level, and once in epan: xmlstub.obj, print.obj and ps.obj).
This fix allows to compile again with MSVC if debug symbols are NOT enabled
while building Ethereal. Do this by editing config.nmake and replacing
"LOCAL_LDFLAGS=/DEBUG" with "LOCAL_LDFLAGS=". In other words: Ethereal CANNOT
be built right now with debug symbols in the object code, for MSVC builds.

printer/print file in different ways (opening the file is probably not
going to be platform-dependent, but opening the printer will be).

a structure containing a pointer to print operations for that object and
a pointer to the private subclass-dependent data for that object, with
subclasses for text and PostScript, and use those rather than the old
scheme where a print format was passed as an argument - or where (as in
the case of printing summary information in Tethereal) we just printed
as text even if "-T ps" was selected.
Check whether those routines succeed or get an I/O error writing output.

platform.
