./autogen.sh is run from the top directory, not the plugins
directory.
I normally do the following to get ethereal built before
building plugins. HAve you done this
1. untar the ethereal CVS tree
tar -zxvf ethereal-2002-06-05.tar.gz
cd ethereal-2002-06-05
2. ./autogen.sh in top directory
3. make
4. make install (as root)
These steps are needed to build ethereal anyway, before I
start adding GIOP plugins.
This is mentioned in the instructions at
http://www.linuxjournal.com/article.php?sid=5453

NO, leave Makefile alone .. Its just Makefile.am and Makefile.nmake
in the plugins directory that needs updating.

I build on Linux, but questions are always welcome :-)
