 We now require .hash files for github packages as well, since github nowadays
provides stable tarballs.

 There are also a few BSD-3c files, so I think this should be BSD-2c, BSD-3c.

 The configure script tries to build and run a program to test for ETH_P_ALL
availability in the AC_LIBNET_CHECK_PF_PACKET function. This will obviously fail
when cross-compiling, maybe worse when hostarch == targetarch. So I think it's
best to explicitly pass libnet_cv_have_packet_socket=yes

 Also it would be nice if there was a way to enable the bpf support, but that
can come later.

 Arnout
