  Modified files:
    wiretap              snoop.c 
  Log:
  When skipping over the padding at the end of a record in a capture file,
  don't seek around it - some implementations of the standard I/O library
  routines (e.g., the ones in Solaris 2.5.1, at least) appear not to be
  clever enough to handle seeks that occur within the buffer by moving the
  current buffer position; instead, they do a seek on the underlying file
  descriptor *and* appear to throw out the buffer, forcing them to do
  another read.
  
  Instead, read it into a buffer.
