  Modified files:
    wiretap              libpcap.c wtap.h 
  Log:
  Add support for capture files written by programs linked with Alexey
  Kuznetsov's modified "libpcap" *as long as you have the ss990915 or
  later patch*; the 990417 patch, alas, changes the per-packet header but
  *doesn't* change the magic number, so you can't just look at the magic
  number to see that it's Not Standard Libpcap.  (Even more unfortunately,
  Red Hat appears to have picked up *that* patch for Red Hat 6.1; I've
  filed bug 6773 with Bugzilla on their site - hopefully, if I'm not
  misremembering the RH 6.1 code I've seen, and they really *did* pick up
  the older patch, they'll fix it ASAP to use the new magic number, and
  will make updates available.)
