I'd like to make sure that libpcap 0.9.1-096 compiles on NetBSD 1.6.
It appears that the test for fddipad says defined(__NetBSD__), but that member must have been introduced in a post-1.6 version of NetBSD.
Actually, the problem appears to be that PCAP_FDDIPAD is defined in pcap-int.h *after* it's used, so that the fddipad member isn't #defined into the pcap structure even if PCAP_FDDIPAD is later #defined. It should be moved up to be defined before "struct pcap" is defined; I've checked in a change to do that.
If all versions of NetBSD put those 3 bytes of padding into FDDI packets supplied to BPF, then the definition of PCAP_FDDIPAD shouldn't be based on the NetBSD version - and if not all of them do, a run-time test using the result of "uname()" should be done.
Perhaps a post-1.6 version happened to define PCAP_FDDIPAD elsewhere (or perhaps the code didn't even compile on those versions - did you try it on 2.0, for example?).
