I'm in the process of moving the contents of airpdcap to epan/crypt.
Once that's done I'll add it to the distribution.

Some warnings from my build on OS X 10.4:

Do those structures need "#pragma pack"? If so, could the code be changed not to require that? Not all C compilers support "#pragma pack", as far as I know, and even those that do apparently don't support it in the same way, for example:

	$ gcc --version
powerpc-apple-darwin8-gcc-4.0.0 (GCC) 4.0.0 20041026 (Apple Computer, Inc. build 4061)

doesn't like those "#pragma pack" items.

In addition:

1) Should all the crypt-XXX.[ch] files in the epan directory be moved to the epan/crypt directory?

2) Can any code be shared between epan/crypt-md5.[ch] and epan/crypt/airpdcap_md5.[ch]?
