Yea i found that page, when I was looking around as well.
Unfortunately my programming skills are not very good at the moment so
I can't resolve the problem myself:).
I've tried it on both my ethernet interface and the airport wireless
one, but the results are the same.
The problem is most probably a platform-dependent one, with the
libpcap library. I've also been playing with sample libpcap packet
capture code (from
http://www.cet.nau.edu/~mc8/Socket/Tutorials/testpcap1.c), and I get
the same problem, however playing with the timeout variable on the
pcap_open_live function, it seemed it managed to dump some packets,
while the same doesn't work with tcpick.
Anyway if you need any testing done on MacOSX feel free to send me an
email whenever you want.
