Oops, typed in haste, a Windows install puts the lua files in the main
Wireshark directory.  This still doesn't answer my question as to why the
tests have (for the 8.1. buildbot) the global config dir as:

global_config_path    =
'C:\buildbot\wireshark\wireshark-master-32\windows-8.1-x86\build\cmbuild\run\RelWithDebInfo\epan\wslua\'
