Split the pcap(3) man page into a bunch of individual man pages for

functions plus an overall man page for libpcap, and put them all into
section 3PCAP.  That means you can actually do "man pcap_open_live" and
get something meaningful, rather than having to do "man pcap" and then
scroll through all the other stuff in the man page.
