I don't run it, I just built it long enough to check for you.

I used the default configurations:
# This file is auto-generated by 'make config'.
# No user-servicable parts inside!
# Options for wireshark-0.99.8_2
_OPTIONS_READ=wireshark-0.99.8_2
WITHOUT_RTP=true
WITH_SNMP=true
WITH_ADNS=true
WITH_PCRE=true
WITH_IPV6=true

The key clue is probably in what provides that library.  Which is
Heimdal, so that *should* provide the library.  

Did you install wireshark from a package?  That may have been built
with a different set of options and/or for a different FreeBSD release.
