Ok: When building wireshark with GTK3 on Windows in a dev environment, a 
file called gschemas.compiled should be set up under the INSTALL 
directory as share\glib-2.0\schemas\gschemas.compiled
(INSTALL is defined in config.nmake)


From the top-level Makefile.nmake:

...
!IFDEF GTK_SCHEMAS_DIR
	if not exist $(INSTALL_DIR)\$(GTK_SCHEMAS_DIR) ^
           mkdir $(INSTALL_DIR)\$(GTK_SCHEMAS_DIR)
	if not exist $(GTK_DIR)\$(GTK_SCHEMAS_DIR)\gschemas.compiled ^
           $(GTK_DIR)\bin\glib-compile-schemas ^
              $(GTK_DIR)\$(GTK_SCHEMAS_DIR)
	xcopy $(GTK_DIR)\$(GTK_SCHEMAS_DIR)\gschemas.compiled ^
              $(INSTALL_DIR)\$(GTK_SCHEMAS_DIR) /d
!ENDIF
...


(Note that gschemas.compiled is created as needed using
glib-compile-schemas).

I'm not sure why this is not working in your build.

It should have "just worked" ...    :

Is 'C:\wireshark' the directory you've defined as the INSTALL dir in 
config.nmake ??
