        Check whether the tpacket_auxdata structure has a tp_vlan_tci member
        before using that member.

        Don't define variables if we aren't going to use them.

        If we have an unknown tpacket version (this "can't happen"), return an
        error.

        From Patrick McHardy:

        VLAN packets sent over devices supporting VLAN tagging/stripping in
        hardware don't have a VLAN header when they are received on packet
        sockets. The VLAN TCI is available through the PACKET_AUXDATA cmsg,
        reconstruct the entire header when necessary.

and their 1.0-branch versions, I suspect.

Check whether it builds on those boxes with

        Don't do all the recvmsg() stuff if we don't have "struct
        tpacket_auxdata".

and its 1.0-branch version.
