I have made these changes (and corresponding changes to configure.ac)
to ensure that these flags are only used with g++/gcc.  The changes
will be in the next version of Nmap.

Can you talk to the libpcap folks ( www.tcpdump.org )?  Nmap uses a
very recent version and upgrades regularly.  Or you can send me a
patch - it is difficult for me to fix/test the myself since my system
does not currently complain about this issue.  So I might miss files.
