Interesting. I cannot reproduce the problem here (RELENG_5 from December 22, amd64, 5.8.5, p5-Net-Pcap 0.05). I'll try on a i386-current tomorrow, but meanwhile, if you did not update perl for a moderately long time, and possibly have outdated modules, it might be worth a try to follow procedure with regard to Perl upgrade from ports/UPDATING (the one which talks about reinstalling all Perl modules). I am not sure it is needed and/or will fix the problem, but without being able to reproduce it... \Anton. -- The moronity of the universe is a monotonically increasing function. -- Jarkko Hietaniemi
