It explains why it works fine with 1.12.0 then... And why I could not
figure out a major difference in main.c file explaining the behavior

If I build a package from g0a24908 (the commit prior to the GTK+
package
upgrade) Wireshark-gtk.exe starts up OK.

I created a GTK+ bundle using the current OBS packages (GTK+ 2.24.23 +
GLib 2.40.0) but Wireshark-gtk still crashes on Windows 8. We might have
to revert back to the GTK+ 2.14 bundle or to Visual C++ 2010 in master.

If we have no other choice I would prefer downgrading the GTK+ package as
it will become obsolete with time. And I would not have to reinstall a
MSVC2010 build environment... But I'm probably selfish ;)

Upgrading to this package solved a severe memory leak with windows server
and RDP, I think.
Not sure what the best of two evils are...
I think testing GTK+ 3.14 would worth a try when it is out. The
default theme will be changed to Adwaita so Wireshark on Windows and
OS X would become nice for free*:
