5 - Fix endian problem with DLT_NULL devices. From FreeBSD via Bill
6 Fenner (fenner@parc.xerox.com)
8 - Fix alignment problem with FDDI under DLPI. This was causing core
11 - Added configure options to disable flex and bison. Resulted from a
12 bug report by barnett@grymoire.crd.ge.com (Bruce Barnett). Also added
13 options to disable gcc and to force a particular packet capture type.
15 - Added support for Fore ATM interfaces (qaa and fa) under IRIX. Thanks
16 to John Hawkinson (jhawk@mit.edu)
18 - Change Linux PPP and SLIP to use DLT_RAW since the kernel does not
19 supply any "link layer" data.
21 - Change Linux to use SIOCGIFHWADDR ioctl to determine link layer type.
22 Thanks to Thomas Sailer (sailer@ife.ee.ethz.ch)
24 - Change IRIX PPP to use DLT_RAW since the kernel does not supply any
27 - Modified to support the new BSD/OS 2.1 PPP and SLIP link layer header
30 - Added some new SGI snoop interface types. Thanks to Steve Alexander
31 (sca@refugee.engr.sgi.com)

34 Richard Allen (ra@hp.is) and Steinar Haug (sthaug@nethelp.no)
36 - Fddi supports broadcast as reported by Jeff Macdonald
37 (jeff@iacnet.com). Also correct ieee802 and arcnet.

40 big enough for some interface types (e.g. FDDI). Thanks to Jes
41 Sorensen (Jes.Sorensen@cern.ch)
43 - Fix some linux alignment problems.
45 - Document promisc argument to pcap_open_live(). Reported by Ian Marsh
48 - Support Metricom radio packets under Linux. Thanks to Kevin Lai
49 (laik@gunpowder.stanford.edu)
51 - Bind to interface name under Linux to avoid packets from multiple
52 interfaces on multi-homed hosts. Thanks to Kevin Lai
53 (laik@gunpowder.stanford.edu)
55 - Change L_SET to SEEK_SET for HP-UX. Thanks to Roland Roberts
58 - Fixed an uninitialized memory reference found by Kent Vander Velden

67 Reported reported by Eric Jacksch (jacksch@tenebris.ca)
69 - Fixed bug in pcap_dispatch() that kept it from returning on packet
72 - Changed ISLOOPBACK() macro when IFF_LOOPBACK isn't available to check
73 for "lo" followed by an eos or digit (newer versions of Linux
74 apparently call the loopback "lo" instead of "lo0").
76 - Fixed Linux networking include files to use ints instead of longs to
77 avoid problems with 64 bit longs on the alpha. Thanks to Cristian

224 - Added checkioctl which is used with gcc to check that the
225 "fixincludes" script has been run.
