Re: compile nmap 4.03/4.10 on mac os x

[jmzhou.ml () gmail com]

Aha, this is interesting. I just downloaded nmap 4.11 and realized
that ``--enable-shared'' and ``--enable-static'' are not in the
option list of ``./configure --help''. But, I can still supply
``--enable-shared'' and ``--disable-static'' to the configure
script, and this causes the same trouble in linking libdnet again.
OK, I admit that this is NOT nmap's fault. It IS a problem of my
build script that uses these two options. ;-)

Thanks,

Jimmy
