Where did you read that. It should contain a warning that this won't 
work out of the box.

There's no Plugin SDK or such. You'll need to completely build Wireshark.

The upcoming  0.99.5 release will bring support "out of the box" for a 
lot of newer Visual C versions than V6,
including support for the free (as in beer) Visual C++ 2005 Express 
Edition which might
suit your needs. So just wait a few days ;-)

You might do yourself a favour and don't try to build with cygwin/gcc, 
as this is very experimental.
