I did have two copies installed, an older(?) version looks like it was sitting in /usr/lib. However, I did have the 0.8.1 copies of files in /usr/local/include and /usr/local/lib.

For grins I copied the same 0.8.1 files into /usr/lib and /usr/include, but I'm seeing the same errors. I probably still have something badly set up, but any other ideas?

I do appear to only have these two copies of of the libpcap files.

Probably because it's also not trying to link "/usr/lib" - if you have the
security update or 10.3.3, you have a libpcap with all those routines.

Do you have *two* versions of libpcap installed - one in "/usr" (the one that comes with OS X) and one in "/usr/local/{include,lib}"? If so, you want to make sure that the header files in "/usr/local/include" match the
headers in "/usr/local/lib" - i.e., if you copied the 0.8.1 headers to
"/usr/local/include", you'd better have 0.8.1's library installed in
"/usr/local/lib".
