The change to trunk will *not* be backported to 1.4.x; the only way it could
possibly affect 1.4.x would be if it were backported. That's why I won't add
it to the list of changes to be backported.

That translates to "Hi, I'm a Mac." :-) Windows isn't the only OS on which
Wireshark runs, so a Windows-only technique, such as aliases in the DEF file,
won't work; neither will a Mac OS X-only technique such as the -alias_list
option to ld, or a GNU-ld-only technique, or a Solaris-linker-only technique,
or....
