I did a quick test on an old Windows XP box:
- a Wireshark development version generated with NMake runs on Windows XP
(GTK UI, Qt one triggers the error as expected)
- a Wireshark development version generated with CMake does not run on
Windows XP
=> CMake (used to generate the official installers) does not add the
compatibility flags allowing to target those old Windows.

Windows XP is officially no more supported. We could modify the installer
to also check for Windows 2003 Server.
