I was trying to compile it from source before.

Just tried it from sunfreeware, and it's still giving me the same error.  Just on a 
hunch, I rebuilt nessus-libraries and then tried libnasl, same error.  Another hunch, 
I replaced libpcap with the latest one, and it's still not flying.  I don't remember 
having to jump through flaming hoops to
install this the first time, so I'm thinking I need something in my path (aside of 
what's mentioned in the documentation) to make this fly.

Any ideas?  Did you have to do any path-munging?

Thanks!
