segfault in libpcap

[Florent.Drouin () alcatel-lucent fr]

      Hello,


I have a systematical crash at tcpdump startup, when I am using libpcap
(2007-01-30)
I just add a test to check if the USB bus directory is present in
pcap-usb-linux.c, and it
seems to solve the problem.

<<
 cat pcap-usb-linux.c.diff
