The "#if 0" stuff was in there when I was testing whether exporting a
string directly from a shared library works. At least on some platforms
(SunOS 5.x, Linux, FreeBSD - all ELF platforms), the answer is "no", so
having a "pcap_lib_version()" routine to return the version string is
the right answer.
There's no point in testing whether it works in, say, IRIX, given that
it doesn't work on several platforms. I'd just forgotten to remove that
stuff from my test program.
