Which version of libpcap is this? Neither the 0.4 version (from LBL),
the 0.5.2 version (from tcpdump.org), nor the current 0.6.2 version
(from tcpdump.org) have that declaration on line 160 of "pcap.c".
Furthermore, all three of those versions, when they *do* declare
"sys_errlist"
1) only do so if HAVE_STRERROR isn't defined, and Red Hat 7.0
most definitely has "strerror()" (so that code won't be
compiled in on RH 7.0, unless it's been misconfigured);
2) declare it as "extern const char *const sys_errlist[];
so you're using either a really old version or a non-standard version.
If you're using a really old version, use a newer version.
If you're using a non-standard version, complain to whoever supplied
that version.
