  Modified files:
    .                    capture.c 
  Log:
  If the attempt to execute Ethereal in a child process fails, have the
  child process send to the parent a message indicating why it failed, so
  that the parent can report that, and then exit.
  
  If the attempt to create the child process to run Ethereal fails, pop up
  a dialog box indicating that this happened.
  
  Change the fork code a bit, to make it easier to substitute, on Win32
  systems, code that does a "CreateProcess()" for the small chunk of code
  that does the fork and exec.
