The same question was asked by Ralf Knapp <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - in fact,
the text of the question appears to be identical to the text of your
question - who sent his question to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

The answer to that question was:

        Date: Thu, 28 Jun 2001 11:34:10 -0500
        From: Jon Dugan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
        To: "Knapp, Ralf"

        Subject: Re: [tcpdump-workers] droped packets ?! > how to increase the bpf 
buffer, or libpap buffer  -

          You can set the BPF bufsize via sysctl:

            sysctl -w debug.bpf_bufsize=whatever

          See sysctl.conf(5) for more info about how to set this as part of the boot
          process.  See sysctl(8) for more info on sysctl.

and, given that your question was identical, the answer to your question
is also identical - you don't have to recompile the kernel, just use
"sysctl".
