Bug#523351: libnet-rawip-perl: Using pcapinit causes segfault

I have only submitted a patch so that people could fix the problem by
rebuilding the package.

But I also thought the example mentionned could be solved by using the
Net::Pcap module.

Would it be enough to avoid backporting the package?
