Since we had quite a few changes recently, here's another release candidate for
the upcoming netsniff-ng 0.5.9. I'd like to give these changes some testing and
if everything turns out to be fine, we would release 0.5.9 in 2-3 weeks. Thus,
please make sure you submit/push any pending changes you'd like to see in the
release and please all give it some good testing. As alway, the changelog is
below.

Thanks!
