Hey guys, just uploaded a new RC. The main changes in this one are the 
following:

     Fixed a memory leak in the advanced interface; there is now a 
function
      libnet_adv_free_packet() to free the memory allocated for the 
packet
      when libnet_adv_cull_packet() is called.
     Fixed a bug on big endian boxes that had TCP and UDP checksums with 
odd
      payloads come out incorrect
     Changed all error messages to look and feel the same:
      "%s(): foo\n", __func__

So the big one is the checksum bug fix. If you're on a big endian box 
and you have a spare minute, do me a favor and try the udp and tcp 
sample applications with both even and odd payloads (something like: 
'./udp2 -s 1.1.1.1 -d 2.2.2.2 -P1-10 -p......' and './udp2 -s 1.1.1.1 
-d 2.2.2.2 -P1-10 -p.......'

If we confirm this is good to go, I'll release 1.1.2 this week.
