Suppossedly any Microsoft C program wanting command-line wildcard args to be expanded must be linked with setargv.obj

I'll give it a try.



Apparently there was some kind of problem linking with setargv back in 2005 and so linking with same was commented out.

I've tried linking with setargv.obj in my current VS9 environment and it links AOK. mergecap then handles command_line wildcards with no problem.

I'll fix makefile.nmake to link setargv.obj for mergecap and capinfos
(which I think are the only two Wireshark progs needing command-line wildcard expansion).

both the buildbot and I have problems with setargv.obj
trying to comment it out, so the build should work again.
don't know what this file is all about :-(
I just don't have that file and it doesn't seem to be generated ...
