Hmmm.... Not for me...

TSHARK_OBJ (used for linking) is created by
by
  tshark_OBJECTS = $(tshark_SOURCES:.c=.obj)

TSHARK_SOURCES is created from (among others):

TSHARK_TAP_SRC =	\
	ui/cli/tap-afpstat.c	\
        ...


However: the TAP obj's are in the top level dir since they are built as 
part of the top level nmake.

I suspect there will need to be a Makefile & etc in ui/cli to build a 
libcliui as mentioned previously by Guy.

"... We should probably build a libcliui static library from the stuff 
in ui/cli. ..."
