That's probably because get_if_capabilities(), with versions of libpcap that
1) have pcap_create();
2) don't have the not-yet-extant support for opening remote devices with pcap_create() etc.;
3) do have support for opening remote devices with pcap_open();
needs to do the same (ugly) stuff that open_capture_device() does, i.e. use pcap_create() etc. on local devices and pcap_open() on remote devices. Perhaps some of that can be pulled into a common routine; I'll look at that.
