packet-icep.c uses variadic macros, which are (unfortunately) not
supported in MSVC6. 

I ran into the same problem with my own dissector, and did not come up
with a nice solution so far. I am currently using macros such as
DEBUG0, DEBUG1, DEBUG2, ... depending on the number of arguments. Does
anybody have a better solution?

Maybe a "don't use variadic macros" sould be included in
README.developer.

Sincerely yours,
