Two other things to try:
1) Under your Snort source directory in src/inline.c, try adding the
following line just under #include <libnet.h>:
#include <net/ethernet.h>
If this does not work, try:
2) In src/inline.h, just under #include "snort.h", try adding the following:
struct ether_addr
{
u_char ether_addr_octet[6];
};
and see if that works. Let us know.
Thanks,
Todd

Try editing libnet-headers.h (most likely in /usr/include/libnet). At or around line 391, remove the #if (!__GLIBC__) / #endif lines and see if that solves the problem. If not, please repost results.
