checking for g++... g++ checking for C++ compiler default output... a.out checking whether the C++ compiler works... yes
but it does look like a c++ thing:
checking how to run the C preprocessor... /lib/cpp configure: error: C preprocessor "/lib/cpp" fails sanity check
I'm not in for c++ so I'm not likely to sort this one out by myself. Any ideas?
Cheers,

It requires g++ to compile and uses libpcap 0.7.1. I've minor gripes :
- g++ is not installed everywhere
- libpcap 0.7.1 : I did some testing of libpcap 0.6.x (the "post lbl
libpcap") on Linux, and when you have a great number of processes each
having a different filter on their own pcap filter, in some cases the
wrong packets will go through. I did not test it with libpcap 0.7, so
it might have been fixed, but that was pretty ugly. For the record,
Nessus 1.3.x _had_ libpcap 0.6.x in CVS for a while, and I switched
back to 0.4.x (the True One) because of its instability. I may give
a shot to 0.7.1, but I don't have high hopes.
If you have a modern Linux distribution and don't scan too many hosts at
the same time, none of my gripes are an issue. If you try to scan 200
hosts simultaneously[*], your mileage may vary
