Well, since we provide a mechanism for automatically downloading and
unpacking the latest versions of the libraries, I think we should also
make sure that the new versions are used.

I have just realized that my current windows builds are still linked
with GTK 2.4.4 -- so I have been carrying around bugs that have been
fixed a long time ago... I guess most Linux ethereal developers who
also provide Windows builds of their specialized ethereal code do not
check that the correct libraries are used.
