It would probably be better to try to stay in sync with the "official"
tcpdump at www.tcpdump.org. Both the latest (current) version, fetched
today:

	http://www.tcpdump.org/daily/tcpdump-current.tar.gz

and the latest release version, 3.9.4:

	http://www.tcpdump.org/release/tcpdump-3.9.4.tar.gz

have the -A option working the same way as in 5.x. 6.1-PRERELEASE seems
to have tcpdump version 3.9.1. So I would recommend simply importing the
3.9.4 version instead of adding a local patch.
