[Winpcap-bugs] pcap_compile is not reenterable

[Gianluca Varenni]

Guram,

we are aware of the issue.
It's a bug present in the original libpcap sources as well. We are planning 
to fix the problem in one of the future versions of WinPcap. At the moment 
the workaround is protecting all the calls to pcap_compile with a global 
critical section/mutex so that only one thread at a time calls pcap_compile.

Have a nice day
GV
