One of those errors is

	In file included from /usr/include/glib/gerror.h:24,
                 from /usr/include/glib/gthread.h:30,
                 from /usr/include/glib/gasyncqueue.h:30,
                 from /usr/include/glib.h:32,
                 from wtap-int.h:38,
                 from ascend-grammar.y:113:
	/usr/include/glib/gquark.h:32: parse error before "G_BEGIN_DECLS"

There is no "gquark.h" file in GLib 1.2[.x], so you are probably trying
to build Ethereal with GLib 2.x.

Ethereal doesn't work with GLib 2.x or GTK+ 2.x; you'd need to somehow
arrange that it build with GLib 1.2[.x] and GTK+ 1.2[.x].  (I don't know
how to do that.)
