So the endian issues in tcprewrite seem to be causing a lot of people
grief, so I've decided to release a beta13 before RC1.  However, since
this wasn't a planned release, some RC1 tickets are half done and
incomplete.  It doesn't seem like this will cause anyone problems, but
I haven't done enough testing myself to release it to the entire
world.

Hence, I'm posting a pre-beta13 for readers of this list to try out
and report any major bugs before I release it to the rest of the
world.

The major changes since beta12 are:
- Fixed detection of IPv4 packets on little-endian (Intel mostly)
boxes.  Prevented tcprewrite from editing most packets
- Fixed TCP/UDP checksum calculation on little-endian boxes
- Added --quiet flag to tcpreplay for Lothar
- The --seed flag should now generate the same IP's on both
little-endian & big-endian boxes
- The --skipl2broadcast flag now works as documented
- Adding L2 header for DLT_RAW encapsulated packets now works

Hopefully everyone here who has found a bug in the last few weeks will
take a few minutes to give it a try and let me know how well it works
out.

Since this is not GA code yet, I'm not posting it to SF, so you'll
have to get it here:

Thanks,
Aaron
