Actually, the fact that it's GPLed is a problem, at least as I
understand it - tcpdump uses the old "give credit" version of the BSD
license, which is incompatible with the GPL as it imposes an extra
restriction on redistribution (you have to give credit).

I'll check the ANSI C standard to see if it says that "r" and "w" imply
text mode.
