Yes, the patches should add new, optional out-of-source build support. The 
regular (in source) building methods should still work as before.

https://code.wireshark.org/review/5254/ contains even additional code to 
ensure backwards compatibility with the regular/previous (in source) building 
method.

I have tested my changes by building Wireshark for Linux/Ubuntu to see whether 
they do not break anything during regular builds.
Which was the case (on my computer).
