Well, the feature isn't available on some compilers, e.g. Sun C, so I checked in a change to use the EXTRACT macros. I also tweaked the EXTRACT macros use "__attribute((packed))" if available; however, at least on SPARC with GCC, the code generated with and without using "__attribute((packed))" is the same - perhaps there are platforms where the compiler can generate better code with "__attribute((packed))" than with shift-and-OR. - This is the TCPDUMP workers list.
