I've committed the patch on our sources.
Actually such source file is part of the libpcap official sources, you can see the commit here

http://cvs.tcpdump.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/libpcap/Win32/Src/gai_strerror.c

Thanks for the bug report!

Have a nice day

  Subject: [Winpcap-users] Patch - Problems compiling Winpcap 4.0.1 with MinGW


  Hi,

  I am trying to compile some libraries (Winpcap 4.0.1/ libnet and others) under MinGW (not the one included in Cygwin, but the one at http://www.mingw.org/).

  Here is my environment:

    a.. Windows XP pro, 32bits

    b.. gcc-core-3.4.5-20060117-1.tar.gz 
    c.. gcc-g++-3.4.5-20060117-1.tar.gz 
    d.. gcc-objc-3.4.5-20060117-1.tar.gz 
    e.. mingw-runtime-3.13.tar.gz 
    f.. mingw32-make-3.81-2.tar.gz 
    g.. w32api-3.10.tar.gz

  I get the following error:

make: *** [../libpcap/Win32/Src/gai_strerror.o] Error 1

Searching in the mailing list archives, i have found the possible cause of this issue:

  http://www.winpcap.org/pipermail/winpcap-users/2005-December/000575.html

  A patch seems to be applied to add the gai_strerrorA function that was missing. But in my environment, i have this function already defined in ws2tcpip.h. See the attachment. So simply adding a #ifndef gai_strerror seems to solve the issue.

  Here is the patch:
