libpcap fails to compile on Tru64 5.1a

[Darren Reed <darrenr () reed wattle id au>]

First, configure is bailing out on numerous platforms I'm trying with:

checking for limits.h... yes
checking netinet/if_ether.h usability... no
checking netinet/if_ether.h presence... yes
configure: WARNING: netinet/if_ether.h: present but cannot be compiled
configure: WARNING: netinet/if_ether.h: check for missing prerequisite headers?
configure: WARNING: netinet/if_ether.h: proceeding with the preprocessor's result
configure: WARNING:     ## ------------------------------------ ##
configure: WARNING:     ## Report this to bug-autoconf () gnu org. ##
configure: WARNING:     ## ------------------------------------ ##
checking for netinet/if_ether.h... yes
checking for ether_hostton... yes
checking for strerror... yes
checking for strlcpy... no

And on Tru64 5.1a, I see:

tru64 /tmp/libpcap-2004.02.07# make
cc -O -std1 -g3 -I.  -I/usr/local/include -DHAVE_CONFIG_H  -D_U_="" -c ./pcap-pf.c
cc: Warning: ./pcap-pf.c, line 353: In this statement, the referenced type of the pointer value "(u_int 
...)malloc(...)" is "unsigned int", which is not compatible with "int" because they differ by signed/unsigned 
attribute. (ptrmismatch1)
                p->dlt_list = (u_int *) malloc(sizeof(u_int) * 2);
----------------^
cc: Error: ./pcap-pf.c, line 359: In this statement, "DLT_DOCSIS" is not declared. (undeclared)
                        p->dlt_list[1] = DLT_DOCSIS;
-----------------------------------------^
*** Exit 1
Stop.

This is because pcap-pf.c asks to not include pcap-bpf.h,
where DLT_DOCSIS lives.
