Strange.  I was just looking at this code earlier today to figure out
the same problem, and when I look closer to this it seems like you are
right.  At least if the comments are correct.

But when testing on a older linux machine with svn 21019 it seems to
work correctly.  Hmmm, maybe we both have the unix version of libpcap
with the same error as winpcap?

The error _is_ in the ifdef, looking at that code... the ifdef polarity does not match
the polarity in the comments, but the comments _do_ match the
polarity of the libpcap.

So I say the comments are right, and libpcap is right.
