Currently, yes, because the capture-from-pipe stuff is compiled in
regardless of whether you are building on Win32 or not and regardless of
whether you have *pcap or not.
If we leave it out when building for Win32, or leave it out when
building for Win32 without libpcap, or possibly get rid of the stuff
that leaves some definitions for capture-from-pipe out when building on
Win32, we might be able to eliminate that requirement.

What does the build do instead of working?
