Yes. I've checked in a change to do that.
However, note that pcap-int.h should only be included by pcap modules; if
there's something in there that applications or other libraries are using, they
should either stop using it, or it should be provided by the libpcap API (in a
form that doesn't expose the internal details of particular pcap modules'
private data - the whole point of the change is to allow modules to have
whatever they need as private data without having to change anything in libpcap
or in code using libpcap).
