Given that a lot of organisations actually use Ethereal, perhaps we need to think about requesting donations of equipment or funding for equipment

It's an ongoing cost.

I'd be Very Happy if SourceForge's compile farm included other OSes, including the vendor compilers (to check builds on vendor compilers as well as GCC) and, if necessary, libraries installed that work with GCC and with vendor compilers. Doing that would help more than just Ethereal.
