In your `hurd_test` branch? in that branch `src/privsep-hurd.c` is just 
a stub, is it working?. How can I test this locally to ensure it works 
for me?

Yes, of course. I'll take your branch as base and will work on a a 
series of patches that work bypassing libpcap. I'll also figure out 
about the ehternet headers.

Thanks!
