I've built verson 8, and maybe 9.0.3, on NT.

Definately looks like a path problem in the compiler. Have you run the
VCVARS32 batch file? You'll find it in the compiler bin directory.

It's the installer-maker, ie it makes an installation package out of the
compiled binaries. I found it more trouble than it was worth for personal
use, and ended up just copying the ethereal directory and copying the
executables over the top.
