Thanks a lot, it works! Ubuntu 9.04 was indeed missing libpcap-dev
(libcap2 was installed, though)
$ dpkg -l|fgrep libcap
ii libcap-dev 1:2.16-5
         development libraries and header files for l
ii libcap2 1:2.16-5
         support for getting/setting POSIX.1e capabil

after rebuilding Squid, it finally started working (even though I didn't
see _any_ error regarding some capability missing)

P.S.: I think this page: http://wiki.squid-cache.org/Features/Tproxy4
should note it on the forefront that libcap is a required dependency for
tproxy, not only under the "Stopping full transparency: Missing needed
capability support." header because I never saw it, so didn't read further.

Thanks a lot again.
