[Snort-inline-users] [snort_inline] problem compiling under 2.6.3

[unor <uno...@ya...>]

Has anyone else see the compile error below while
attempting to compile snort_inline 2.1.0a under Linux
kernel 2.6.3?  (RedHat 9 if it matters)

It compiled fine under 2.6.1 so I copied swab.h from
the 2.6.1 tree into /usr/include/linux/byteorder/ and
it compiled fine.  I'm no coder so I have no idea what
implication this may cause... sorry cannot test yet
either :(
