The patches are compile-time and run-time compatible with

After applying the patches, libpcap didn't compile on my vanilla Ubuntu 7.10 virtual machine, as the tpacket_auxdata structure didn't have a tp_vlan_tci member; I added a configuration script test to check whether that structure has that member, and only enables that chunk of code if it does. Could you check to make sure that with kernels where it *does* have a tp_vlan_tci member, the configure script recognizes that it does and enables that code?
