Referring to pcap_version[] doesn't do what you want on at least some
UN*Xes (Fedora 16 and probably other Linux distributions, probably at least some if not all other ELF-based systems, and perhaps also Mac OS X), and causes problems if pcap_version[] has a different length in the libpcap with which the executable was built and the libpcap with which it's run, so we avoid using it for now. svn path=/trunk/; revision=40138
