ifaddrs.h doesn't exist on solaris. There's a function pcap_findalldevs you can steal from libpcap http://cvs.tcpdump.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/libpcap/fad-glifc.c?rev=1.5.2.1 which is BSD licensed, with the obsolete clause ftp://ftp.cs.berkeley.edu/pub/4bsd/README.Impt.License.Change

Thanks for the pointer.  I think the way to go is to use libgtop, which has this issue solved (or at least it suppossed to have :-)
