I would really like to have MIT-Kerberos linked in with ethereal in
the w32 diastribution for a 1.0 release.
I cant build for w32 myself so i can not implement these changes or
test them, but since MIT do provide a build and shared libraries for
the w32 platform it should be possible?
As for gtk1, i use it but am fine with making it obsolete and not
distributing any gtk1 builds.
Do we need to remove the gtk1 code and defines from the source?
