Should we use something more Wireshark-specific, e.g. WIRESHRK_TARGET_PLATFORM 
instead?
That might work better. When Googling for information about this I found at least a couple of instances of some annoying bit of software insisting on setting the PLATFORM environment variable to some silly string such as BPC or HPC and breaking MSVC++ builds, so if we can avoid depending on PLATFORM at all, that might at least keep us from getting hosed by those programs.
