Hmmm, maybe I assumed too much. I went to the web site referenced, and 
tried to down load the instaructions (sic)[1] but got:

        The requested URL /apps/ethereal-dag-build.gz was not found on this 
        server.

So, I could not tell if they modified Ethereal or not.

[1] However, I do like the new word. Instaructions: (n) Instructions 
distributed in the form of a tar file.
