I think "timeval", on Windows, is defined by one of the winsock header
files.  "wtap.h" includes <winsock2.h> if HAVE_WINSOCK2_H is defined; is
it defined in "wiretap/config.h"?  If not, is "wiretap/config.h"
identical to "wiretap/config.h.win32"?  If not, try removing
"wiretap/config.h" and rebuilding.  (I infer from the error messages
that you're using MSVC++, not Cygwin.)
