Same thing as the complaint in this bug:
(cd doc ; \
make ../wireshark-filter.4 )
make[3]: Entering directory `/u/morriss/wireshark/source/build_Linux2.6/doc'
WIRESHARK_RUN_FROM_BUILD_DIRECTORY=1 ../tshark -G fields | /usr/bin/perl
../../doc/dfilter2pod.pl ../../doc/wireshark-filter.pod.template >
wireshark-filter.pod
tshark: wimaxasncp - cannot open file:
'/u/morriss/wireshark/source/build_Linux2.6/wimaxasncp/dictionary.xml', error:
No such file or directory
(The file/directory it's looking for is in '/u/morriss/wireshark/wimaxasncp/'
but that directory didn't get... created/copied/symlinked into the build
directory.)

There is also the WIRESHARK_RUN_FROM_BUILD_DIRECTORY environment variable which
is supposed to help with this kind of issue, though I don't think it's
applicable to this problem.
I looked around but I couldn't (yet) find how/why 'configure' (?) creates all
the necessary directories in the build directory.
