From Graeme Hewson:

	This fixes some bugs:

	1. With the -S option under Linux, Capture/Stop or ^E was
	ignored until the next packet was read.  This is because
	capture.c wasn't checking for EINTR from select(), which is
	returned when the child receives SIGUSR1 from the parent.

	2. When reading from a pipe, a spurious error message from
	pcap_open_live() was written to stderr.

	3. Error messages from the child in Sync mode were displayed in
	a Warning alert box.

	Also, there's a new subroutine, popup_errmsg(), to replace
	several instances of duplicate code.
