Very interesting indeed.

I'll take a stab at it.  Upon initial inspection it doesn't seem that
libdnet has any ChangeLog, which is unfortunate in trying to determine
what's been done wrt Nmap's modifications making it in there.  But oh
well.

The current license for libdnet is the new BSD license, which I think
is what it was before (but either way it's OK).
