"Complete the call" in what sense?

After you applied my patch, did it

	fail to compile because it failed to find the "net/if.h" header
	file;

	fail to compile because it found that header file but that
	header file failed to define IFF_UP and/or IFF_LOOPBACK and/or
	"struct ifreq" and/or "struct ifconf";

	fail to compile for some other reason?

I.e., what were the precise errors it produced?

> so I just removed the ifdef statements,

Removed the "#ifndef WIN32"/"#endif"?

Those shouldn't make any difference if you're compiling on UNIX....

> made "if.h" a local file

I.e., you copied "/usr/include/net/if.h" to the Ethereal source
directory?
