The myricom software comes with libpcap version 1.8.1 which probably
has ABI differences with 1.5.3, so compiling with redhat's header
files and using the myricom libraries may generally not work well.

Not sure why a symbol in the BSS was causing issues, but pointing
argus' configure to the pcap headers and libraries that are packaged
in CSPi_SNFv3.0.12_for_Linux.tgz fixes symbol resolution.  I built with:

./configure --with-libpcap=/tmp/myri_snf-3.0.12.50830_b8cb114e7-3390.x86_64/ \
	CFLAGS=-I/tmp/myri_snf-3.0.12.50830_b8cb114e7-3390.x86_64/include \
	LDFLAGS='-Wl,-rpath,/tmp/myri_snf-3.0.12.50830_b8cb114e7-3390.x86_64/lib -L/tmp/myri_snf-3.0.12.50830_b8cb114e7-3390.x86_64/lib'

It might be necessary to uninstall libpcap-devel or just move
/usr/bin/pcap-config out of the way temporarily to build argus.
configure is very insistent about using pcap-config.
