Yes, this was indeed an error in the tcpdump manual page. It was corrected in their products, and the fixed version was merged into FreeBSD -CURRENT by Bill Fenner 5 months ago as part of an unrelated update. Apparently, the multi-DLT support (the main reason for the fix) has not been merged into -STABLE yet. I have CC'd this message to Bill Fenner; Bill, do you plan on MFC'ing the DLT support, or should this particular typo be fixed independently in -STABLE's tcpdump manual page?
