Currently the defaults for configure option can be found in our user 
documentation only (compiling.html), We should really add them to output 
of 'configure --help'. In addition to this, some default settings should 
be changed (e.g. PCI).

This is caused by the lowlevel networking support designed for FreeBSD. 
The configure script finds the header file 'net/bpf.h' and turns it on. 
This file doesn't seem to contain the expected definitions for libpcap. 
Unfortunately the active developers have no access to FreeBSD, so we can 
only give you some hints.

- If you don't need networking support, remove the NE2000 configure switch
- If want networking support and you are not on FreeBSD, edit config.h 
and set BX_NETMOD_FBSD to 0.
