I was able to make Wireshark build and (mostly) work using Visual Studio 2008
Professional (not Express) using nearly identical changes. I wish I had checked
bugzilla first. 

The one part of Wireshark 1.0.99 that does not work is File->Open or Ctrl+O
fails to open the file dialog. However, I can load and dissect packets using
File->Open Recent. No problems with packet capture, performance is good. 

I needed to make an additional change to adns.tmp/src/config.h in the HAVE_POLL
region. The struct pollfd and macros POLLIN, POLLPRI, and POLLOUT collide with
Windows.h. Adding an #ifdef to avoid compiling that if _MSC_VER>=1500 does the
trick.

During the build, there is an issue where xcopy needs to ask whether the target
is a directory or a file. This can be handled with a /d switch, but I haven't
found the offending line to fix it.

I am going to try the same set of changes against 1.0.2 and see if the
File->Open issue disappears.
