Has it never been built on OSX-10.3-PPC?
I didn't realise I was introducing a new dependency. There is no other
obvious place in the preferences to control the behaviour of a wiretap
module. I like being able to control it from the relevant protocol
preferences, even though a file has to be (re)-loaded to see its effect.
Is changing the Windows makefiles as Tomas suggested acceptable? If
not, are there any suggestions for how I might make this preference work
on all platforms?
Is it a really good idea to have a Preference setting in the wiretap
library?!? This will complicate the wiretap interface which is currently
lean (and I like it that way). Each of such Preferences will make things
even worse. There might be reasons that no other such Preferences
currently exist.
Maybe doing the filtering in the packet-frame.c *might* be a better idea.
However, I didn't thought about the pros and cons deeply ...
