Well, the good news is that GLib 2.x and GTK+ 2.x *do* generate shared
libraries on Mac OS X, and I was able to build Ethereal with the shared
libraries.

The bad news is that it crashes:

I haven't yet figured out why it's crashing.

I'll see if I can build a static version and see if that crashes, to see
whether it's a GLib/GTK+ 2.x issue or a shared-libethereal issue.
