I just committed r38782 to fix compilation with the configure script and 
the "--without-pcap" option.  But it generates the runtime warnings 
shown below.

(wireshark:66065): Gtk-WARNING **: CaptureFilters: missing action /Capture/CaptureFilters
(wireshark:66065): Gtk-WARNING **: Interfaces: missing action /Capture/Interfaces
(wireshark:66065): Gtk-WARNING **: Options: missing action /Capture/Options
(wireshark:66065): Gtk-WARNING **: Start: missing action /Capture/Start
(wireshark:66065): Gtk-WARNING **: Stop: missing action /Capture/Stop
(wireshark:66065): Gtk-WARNING **: Restart: missing action /Capture/Restart

If I break up the "const char *ui_desc_menubar" with
#ifdef HAVE_LIBPCAP around the capture menu options, then the runtime 
warning changes to:

Warning: set_menu_vissible couldn't find action path= 
/Menubar/CaptureMenu
