According to www.tcpdump.org: TCPDUMP version 3.8.3 has been released as of March 30, 2004. 3.8.3 is identical to 3.8.2, but the version number has been incremented to match libpcap. LIBPCAP version 0.8.3 has been released as of March 30, 2004. 0.8.3 fixes a minor problem with gencode.c on 64-bit architectures. It also carries the correct version numbers.
