    Enable command-line wildcard expansion when invoking mergecap and capinfos
     by linking those executables with setargv.obj.
    See http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-users/201002/msg00194.html
      (and preceeding messages in the thread).


    svn path=/trunk/; revision=31943

but, when looking at the 1.12 Makefile.nmake, we appear *not* to be linking
with setargv; it was removed, probably inadvertently, as part of commit
d602662b36b7322573e83fe80c3ab820992073c9 (which changed the list of object
files for mergecap from an explicit list to a list built from the list of
mergecap sources - *most* of the object files in that list could be replaced,
but setargv.obj couldn't be and shouldn't be).
