Great!

How about a) giving both files similar names and defining them
in the Makefile.am/Makefile.nmake before the include (renaming
caputre-wpcap.c to pcap-util-win32.c or pcap-util-unix.c to
capture-pcap.c comes to mind, I never understood the dirrerent
naming conventions anyhow :-)
or b) assign something like CAPTURE_TOOLS=... in the
Makefile.am/nmake before including Makefile.common and use
$(CAPTURE_TOOLS) instead of the actual filename.

does this help?

We are stuck with technology when what we really want is just stuff that
works. Some say that should read Microsoft instead of technology.
