Well, this bug is 4 1/2 years old now, so I think it's safe to assume that
there's not much interest in implementing this.  I am very tempted to close it
as WONTFIX, particularly since there seems to be a rather easy alternative to
achieve what you want:

If the file containing the list of capture files to be merged is saved as a
Unix file type, then in a cygwin prompt, you can run:

    mergecap.exe -w <outfile.pcap> `cat <infile.lst>`

This failed when I tried it with <infile.lst> saved in DOS format, but after
converting it to Unix using cygwin's dos2unix.exe, it worked as expected.
