Some changes were recently merged to -CURRENT to address this identical
problem as part of some ongoing 802.11-related work.  I'll be merge the
namespace fix for lex/yacc pollution once it's settled for a couple of
weeks.  Brian's commit message attached below.

  Log:
  * Modify libpcap to work a bit better with our 802.11 code.  This means
    tcpdump -y ieee802_11 will work in the basic senses, including the
    code compilation for filters (where you may specify "link[]" to refer
    to parts of the 802.11 header, as well as treat it like a normal
    Ethernet header).  Previously, it was just too far off to do anything
    useful for us.
  * While I'm here, fix some compile problems that will result from lex
    and yacc namespace polution when linking with -lpcap.  The namespace
    is now "pcapyy*" instead of "yy*", and it tests fine with world and
    some external applications that may or may not use "yy*".
