HP-UX support and portability

[Denis Ovsienko <denis () ovsienko info>]

Hello all.

HP-UX is one of the OSes nominally supported by libpcap and tcpdump,
but it is rather difficult (or expensive) to find a live HP-UX host with
shell for testing and development.  So before I forget again, this is
far from ideal, but is the best reference material I managed to find for
reasoning about HP-UX portability:

http://hpux.connect.org.uk/hppd/hpux/Networking/Admin/libpcap-1.10.4/
http://hpux.connect.org.uk/hppd/hpux/Networking/Admin/tcpdump-4.99.4/

The "source code" tarballs are not the pristine release archives, but
archives of working copies after applying the patches and running
./configure, so there is a config.h with (or without) the various
HAVE_xxxx macros.

The binary packages also include description of changes applied before
building, perhaps some of that could be up-streamed.
