Hi again,

Some more info regarding this. This was with python26 on NetBSD  
5.0_STABLE. Later I also tried python25 on NetBSD 4.0.1_PATCH which  
gave me the same results as below the "/////...".
Strangly, with python24 on NetBSD 4.0.1_PATCH, all tests work fine.  
(So this might be a python related problem and maybe not libpcap, as I  
suspected from the beginning.)
