What version of Git do you have?  In your case it looks like git bash is
being called and isn't able to execute tools\runlex.sh.

I have git version 2.6.4.windows.1 installed, and the only element of that
installation on my path is "C:\Program Files\Git\cmd" which doesn't have
the extra git msys utilities.  I think this is an option in the git
install, however I install git using chocolatey so don't know what options
the usual git installer may offer.  The choco install defaults to only
gitinstall\cmd, but does have options for GitAndUnixToolsOnPath which adds
gitinstall\bin which is what you have according to the build log:

It works!
I removed git from the path variable. I've had the path to Git\bin and
Git\cmd added.

I've got Git version 1.9.0. But as I remember, I've added the path for
myself manually, because I guessed that might fix the build problem with
wireshark, as it's remarked as "missing" when running CMake.

Conclusion:
- Wireshark build instructions are correct

For myself:
- Read the docs and double check each point
- Don't add unnecccesary path variables
- Try to understand how CMake works

Thanks for your help Graham
