Everything -- Autotools, CMake and Nmake. This brings up an issue for
Nmake: Qt isn't a part of wireshark-win{32,64}-libs. I haven't added it
yet because it's fairly large:

$ du -sh Qt-5.1.1-MSVC2010-win*
539M    Qt-5.1.1-MSVC2010-win32
141M    Qt-5.1.1-MSVC2010-win32.zip
594M    Qt-5.1.1-MSVC2010-win64
149M    Qt-5.1.1-MSVC2010-win64.zip

For people doing development on Windows, would you rather have the Qt
SDK in a central location on your system (I've been using c:\Qt) or in
WIRESHARK_LIB_DIR with everything else (which means taking up a lot of
space if you have multiple WIRESHARK_LIB_DIRs)?


I'm the odd one out on this it seems, I have no use for QT5 apart from Wireshark, so would like them in the WIRESHARK_LIB_DIR.  I've only ever had two lib dirs, one for x86 and one for amd64.
