@all: What is the sense behind the HAVE_CONFIG_H if I need it anyway?

config.h is only used on Unix, so only Unix builds need to include it. Things like HAVE_LIBPCAP are defined in there according to the configure script's results, which various Wireshark source files can use to include/exclude code specific to certain optional features such as libpcap or adns/libsmi/c-ares/etc.

Hmmm, Windows uses it too: the used version is built from the source-controlled "config.h.win32" file.
