  Log:
  The configure script distributed with version 0.7 of yersinia checks
  for multiple pcap.h files and aborts with an error message, if more
  than one is actually present. This appears to be a pre-caution to
  prevent building with pcap.h from one version and running with a
  library belonging to another one ...
  
  While I see the value of such a test, it prevents building on systems
  before 5.0 (where it requires a port version of libpcap). After some
  testing I'm quite confident, that the port will build correctly (i.e.
  without version mismatch between header and library), if the port
  version of libpcap is present.
  
  The libpcap port is used instead of the system version, if present.
  In that case, yersinia is statically linked with libpcap.
  
  The problem was detected by jau at iki dot fi (Jukka A. Ukkonen).
