Re: Compile error on netbsd

[Jay Fink <jay.fink () gmail com>]

That patch works fine, I tested both changes on netbsd, freebsd7,
freebsd8 and debian-current - all look good.

The performance is kind of strange; my home netbsd system is a
vmware-server guest running netbsd 5.99.11. The network is bridged. My
work netbsd system is newer build running under fusion on osX (not the
best of environments...) it is using a private NAT. I suspect the
performance may be related to fusion - I have seen this issue before
especially on guests running under fusion on osX.

I am sure on bare metal nmap runs fine under netbsd.

Thanks,
   Jay
