Problem compiling under FreeBSD-4.2

[Peter Van Epp]

	As well a quick glance at FreeBSD 4.2 indicates my bpf.c patch hasn't
made it in to at least 4.2-RELEASE yet. I hope to get to upgrading one of my
machines to 4.2 later today and will send Carter the patch for inclusion in the
FAQ. Basiclly the bug in bpf.c means that argus never sees the last few packets
in a not completely full bpf buffer because there is no code to time out and 
flush the buffer towards libpcap/argus. There is a FreeBSD pr outstanding on 
it and I'll have a look at its status.
