1. using bind() to bind socket to device

  I'm interested in binding a socket to a device, and have looked at
the pcap source code. In pcap-linux.c, a generic socket address
stucture is used, and a string containing the name of the device to
use is placed in the data portion.  This address structure is then
used in the call to bind.  This seems odd to me and I haven't figured
out from the sock man page why this would work.  The packet man page
suggests using a sockaddr_ll structure, which contains the hardware
address of the device, in the call to bind.  Any idea why this first
method which seems bizzarre to me, would work?
