For Windows, the "better" way is to set an environment variable WIRESHARK_VERSION_EXTRA. I'm trying to get away from folks having to make changes to config.nmake just to build.
See the Developers Guide section 2.2.9. Open a Visual Studio Command Prompt ( https://www.wireshark.org/docs/wsdg_html_chunked/ChSetupWin32.html#ChSetupPrepareCommandCom ).
