 Modified files:
. README.win32 Log:
 gtkclist.c is called ethclist.c now

...and all the functions in it are called "eth_clist_..." now, which
means that it no longer substitutes for GtkClist, it's our own widget
for displaying packet lists, which is *currently* the same as the GTK+
1.2[.x] GtkClist but will probably eventually no longer be (once it's
made to work with GTK+ 2.x as well), e.g. I want to make it a "virtual
clist" that calls back to a routine to get column text.

As such, that step in README.win32 might no longer be necessary - in
fact, if you're building with GTK+ 1.2[.x], I think it's necessary to
*not* do it, as, when building with GTK+ 1.2[.x], "gtk/packet_list.c"
uses the EthClist stuff.

Agreed, I only found this when having a short look at, and was pretty sure that gtkclist.c was simply not ok any more! As I don't use cygwin for this build variant, I just cannot say if this step is true any longer.
