Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: bsdmainutils
Ubuntu 8.04 / Ubuntu 8.10
bsdmainutils 6.1.10ubuntu2
Expected: When given a custom format string, that form is used instead.
Actual: When invoked by the name 'hd' and given a custom format string (even
one of the builtins like with -c, -b, -C (which is default!)), the specified
format is display as well as (after) the requested format.
Invokation as "hexdump" works as expected.
Results.
