SOCK_PACKET seems to have been completely deprecated in 2.2.0. There's
not even a mention of it in any of the toplevel files in /usr/src/linux.
So obviously nmap/libpcap-possibly-modified needs to be fixed? Will it
even be fixable when using the linux packet-filter?
Queso still seems to work with 2.2.0 here.
