If you use SCO, you might have trouble building libpcap from this
release. We do not have a machine running SCO and have not had reports
of anyone successfully building on it. Since SCO apparently supports
DLPI, it's possible the current version works. Meanwhile, SCO provides
a tcpdump binary as part of their "Network/Security Tools" package:
of anyone successfully building on it; the current release of libpcap
does not compile on SCO OpenServer 5. Although SCO apparently supports
DLPI to some extent, the DLPI in OpenServer 5 is very non-standard, and
it appears that completely new code would need to be written to capture
network traffic. SCO do not appear to provide tcpdump binaries for
OpenServer 5 or OpenServer 6 as part of SCO Skunkware:

There is also a README that explains how to enable packet capture.
If you use UnixWare, you will not be able to build libpcap from this
release. We hope to support this operating system in some future
release of libpcap. Meanwhile, there appears to be an UnixWare port of
libpcap 0.0 (and tcpdump 3.0) in:
ftp://ftp1.freebird.org/pub/mirror/freebird/internet/systools/
UnixWare appears to use a hacked version of DLPI.
If you use UnixWare, you might be able to build libpcap from this
release, or you might not. We do not have a machine running UnixWare,
so we have not tested it; however, SCO provide packages for libpcap
0.6.2 and tcpdump 3.7.1 in the UnixWare 7/Open UNIX 8 part of SCO
Skunkware, and the source package for libpcap 0.6.2 is not changed from
the libpcap 0.6.2 source release, so this release of libpcap might also
build without changes on UnixWare 7.
If linking tcpdump fails with "Undefined: _alloca" when using bison on
a Sun4, your version of bison is broken. In any case version 1.16 or
