That change is the right thing to do - if you don't have pcap_create(), you also don't have the APIs to query whether a device could support monitor mode or request that a device go into monitor mode (as those APIs depend on the pcap_create()/pcap_activate() split, and were introduced after pcap_create() and pcap_activate() were introduced).
