Nmap 4.20ALPHA6 and libpcap 0.9.4

i just noticed that namp is now checking for a libpcap of at least
0.9.4. what specifically is the requirement of 0.9.4? i ask for some
OS's pull in functions of newer api's without pulling the entire thing,
hence versioning is off.

for example, if i pull that test out and let nmap use openbsd's built-in
libpcap, everything functions normally (from i can tell so far).
openbsd's libpcap has almost all the .9 api's, if not all (i'll have to
check).

cheers,
okan
