85e18f3 by Gerald Combs (gerald@xxxxxxxxxxxxx):

    Increase the error buffer size for rpcap.
    
    If the rpcap port is unreachable pcap_findalldevs_ex can write more
    than PCAP_ERRBUF_SIZE bytes to errbuf. E.g. if we try to capture from
    Google's all-eights public DNS server we get:
    
    ----
    Can't get list of interfaces: Is the server properly installed on 8.8.8.8?
    connect() failed: A connection attempt failed because the connected
    party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established
    connection failed because connected host has failed to respond.  (code 1
    ----
    
    Set the buffer to PCAP_ERRBUF_SIZE*4 bytes. Hopefully that's large enough.
