Comparing git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/libpcap.git
against Patrick's tarball.  git is missing some mode and some rcsid
lines like this example below, I assume that the removal of these lines
in git was deliberate.

However the removal of the #ifndef lint lines also removed a copyright
notice from the object.  The copyright line should be reinstated.
