OK, thanks Guy, I'll give it a go.

PS  How do I get rid of Zlib?
(I haven't programmed for Windows in decades.)
There's no Windows programming expertise needed - it's a bit more of a pain with VC++ builds than builds with UNIX tools (where you just pass "--without-zlib" to the configure script), but it *should* be sufficient to remove the #defines of HAVE_LIBZ from "config.h.win32" and "wiretap\config.h.win32", and remove the "$(ZLIB_DIR)\zlib.lib", and the backslash at the end of the preceding line, from "wiretap\Makefile.nmake" 

If not, you might also have to

	1) remove the ZLIB_DIR definition from "config.nmake";

	2) remove the "/I$(ZLIB_DIR)" from various ".nmake" files.
I'll look at making that more automatic, along the lines of how we do it for GNU ADNS; that'd let you do it solel by editing "config.nmake".
