In Ethereal's capture-wpcap.c:
#include <pcap.h>
...
int
#ifdef WPCAP_CONSTIFIED
pcap_lookupnet(const char *a, bpf_u_int32 *b, bpf_u_int32 *c, char *d)
#else
pcap_lookupnet(char *a, bpf_u_int32 *b, bpf_u_int32 *c, char *d)
#endif
{
g_assert(has_wpcap);
return p_pcap_lookupnet(a, b, c, d);
}
The WPCAP_CONSTIFIED was added recently AFAICT so it may not be
a problem anymore. But it could cause a redefine error with an "old" Ethereal
and your patch.
