Hi.

While testing Pcap.Net (http://pcapdot.net), I've found this bug in tshark:

I use tshark on a pcap file using these arguments:
-o udp.check_checksum:TRUE 
-o tcp.relative_sequence_numbers:FALSE 
-o tcp.analyze_sequence_numbers:FALSE 
-o tcp.track_bytes_in_flight:FALSE 
-o tcp.desegment_tcp_streams:FALSE 
-o tcp.check_checksum:TRUE 
-o ttp.dechunk_body:FALSE                                                      
  -t r -n -r "filename.pcap" -T pdml

The pdml file I get for specific packets has a smaller tcp.len than what I
expect.

In the attached pcap file there is one packet that if opened by Wireshark we
can see that the TCP layer takes 16 bytes.
However, when I run tshark on it I get a pdml file with tcp.len of 12 bytes.

Thank you,

Boaz.
