Re: tcpdump 3.9.8 / libpcap 0.9.8 releases coming

Everything has been fixed now. Both libpcap and tcpdump 0.9/3.9 branches 
compile properly with VC6 and Cygwin.

Thanks for holding off!

Have a nice day
GV

PS. the only thing left pending for me is that patch for wlan filtering, but 
I don't think that should hold off the release of libpcap 0.9.8.
