pcapo_stats symatics are now the same on linux and bsd

[jones@…]

The following code in src/PktSrc.cc:

#ifdef HAVE_LINUX

Linux clears its counters each time.
s->received = stats.received;
s->dropped = stats.dropped + pstat.ps_drop;
s->link = 0; not available

#else

Default assumes FreeBSD's semantics.
s->received = stats.received;
s->dropped = pstat.ps_drop;
s->link = pstat.ps_recv;

#endif

can be smplified to:

Default assumes FreeBSD's semantics.
s->received = stats.received;
s->dropped = pstat.ps_drop;
s->link = pstat.ps_recv;

With out this mode the error keep increasing on linux once you see a error.

Is there some #ifdef or autoconf goop we can use to retain backwards compatibility with older versions of Linux that still use the previous semantics?

Oops, for what it's worth, that last anonymous comment was from me

This is a duplicate of #18, please continue there.
