Ah. I wasn't aware that was the case, especially if the maintainer 
cannot specifically commit.

So far all the options are causing _a_ failure- swat, ads, aio, acl, 
fam. I'm still going, but I think thats all of them.

I am still looking into it as time permits, but I'm not sure I 
understand the difference? I had to install libnet separately in order 
to build. How does that fit in your comment? I'm still a very newbie 
developer so I'm not always accurately understanding the terms, I think.

If I start getting these terms right I think I might just get better at 
this stuff in the makefiles :)
