No, just move
check_function_exists( "pcap_create" HAVE_PCAP_CREATE )
above the if (WIN32) - and combine the two tests:
check_function_exists( "pcap_create" HAVE_PCAP_CREATE )
if( HAVE_PCAP_CREATE OR WIN32 )
#
# If we have pcap_create(), we have pcap_set_buffer_size(), and
# can set the capture buffer size.
#
# Otherwise, if this is Windows, we have pcap_setbuff(), and can
# set the capture buffer size.
#
set( CAN_SET_CAPTURE_BUFFER_SIZE TRUE )
endif()

Versions of prior to 4.1 WinPcap don't have it, so if somebody has an earlier
version's developer kit installed, that test won't find pcap_create().

Well, we *could*, on Windows, have the code check, at run time, whether we have
pcap_create() or not, allowing code built with a newer version of WinPcap to
work with older versions. That would make dumpcap more complicated, though.
