Hi,

I recently upgraded to glibc 2.2, and when I tried to compile
ethereal, I got the following error:

gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.   -I. -I./wiretap -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/include/pcap  -Wall -g -O2 -I. -I./wiretap -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/lib/glib/include -I/usr/X11R6/include -I/usr/include/pcap -c inet_pton.c
In file included from inet_pton.c:56:
inet_v6defs.h:33: conflicting types for `inet_aton'
/usr/include/arpa/inet.h:67: previous declaration of `inet_aton'   

inet_aton is defined in the inet.h file with glibc 2.2.

The attached patch is required to get things to compile.
