There might be a bug in the version of libpcap on that version of 
whatever Linux distribution you're running.  What version of what 
distribution of Linux (*distribution* version, not *kernel* version) 
are you using, and what version of libpcap does it have?

As that's not on Windows, this should probably be discussed on 
tcpdump-workers, so I'm sending it there and setting the Reply-To: 
header appropriately.
