The underlying issue is that we don't trust the new tcpdump/libpcap
guys.  The only way our libpcap will get updated is in small diffs
(probabaly about ten of them) that each upgrade one small part.  I
started doing this at the hackathon this week (I really want the
tcp-flags feature in the filter language) but couldn't get the diffs
small enough for review.
