Menu option file/merge now doesn't work after this checkin. On Windows XP.

As you've noted in the commit comment, this causes problems if the
version string is not as expected.

I'm usually using something like 0.10.14.0xx for my personal Ethereal
versions.

That has several advantages, one is that plugins won't interfere between
installed and devel versions.

However, while debugging with my Visual Studio 6 I had VS crashes all
the time after the manifest changes were done.

This is unfortunate. Someone not following the current conversation will
get lost fixing this problem. Any ideas to circumvent this problem?

Regards, ULFL
