[Flow-tools] flow-tools on FreeBSD/amd64

Are there any known issues with flow-tools on 64-bit platforms?  I'm 
trying to run 0.68 on FreeBSD 7.0/amd64 and running into some odd behavior 
with flow-capture and flow-fanout.

Essentially, it seems as if the destination IP address coming from 
revcmesg() is garbage -- sometimes it's 0, other times it's a random 
value.  I've checked ftnet.loc_addr.sin_addr.s_addr immediately after the 
recvmsg() call and it is not as expected.

This is with both a pre-compiled package and a build from source.

If this has been seen before or if anybody can suggest clue, I'd 
appreciate it.

I've verified that the exports are correct on the wire with both tcpdump 
and nfcapd.  Right now, I'm using a 32bit build without issue.


Thanks,
Mark
