Bro seems to complete the configure step, but I'm seeing a couple 'not
found' and 'Failed' messages during when tests are run in the configure
step and am wondering if these are errors that can be ignored or if I
need to fix them first. This is on RHEL 6.6. I'm using the PF_RING
libpcap, and the system libpcap is not installed.

I ended up installing readline-devel (no readline.h or history.h) and
having to reinstall BIND (missing libresolv.a) at some point to resolve
a few other not found issues. I'm not sure why the build script isn't
finding pcap-int.h. I've manually added the pfring location of this file
to my path and library path, but it doesn't seem to be finding the
header file. I don't recall seeing some of these issues in previous
builds, so I'm wondering if there are some new dependencies or perhaps
if a recent update from RHEL 6.5 to 6.6 resulted in some weird issues.
