Using "tshark -z 'follow,tcp,ascii,<stream number>'" stops whenever the stream
contains a broken or missing package. For example if a txt file was
transmitted, but some package could not be recieved by the device captured on
by wireshark and tshark is then fed the pcap file with the described command,
it stops right after the package before the missing one.

However, using wireshark, I can clearly see, that more data of the file was
captured and also correctly assigned to the tcp stream. I noticed this bug in
all wireshark/tshark versions I used so far and both on Linux and Windows. The
bug affects also wiresharks "follow tcp stream" option.

Please help me and help me quick, because I need this working VERY badly.
