Fixes #10

In libpcap version 1.5.0 or later, pcap_set_immediate_mode should be used for packets that arrive on the interface to be processed immediately, otherwise they will be buffered.

Works with libpcap version 1.10.1-4build1.

This will break compatibility with libpcap versions older than 1.5.0.

…ccount for updated libpcap library, now packets are delivered as soon as they arrive on interface

Hi! This project is no longer maintained. i can merge this but preferably I'd like someone to fork this.

I don't have the knowledge to be able to maintain a fork of this sorry.

This is just what fixed the problem for me, so wanted to feed this back for anyone else struggling to get this working on newer OS versions.
