FreeBSD's is a fork that appear to get synced with each of our releases, so it 
hasn't diverged much. It's in contrib/tcpdump, as with other "contributed" 
software.

NetBSD's is imported (into CVS) from our releases by a script. I'm not sure 
what changes they've made and where they are kept in the source tree. It's in 
external/bsd/tcpdump.

OpenBSD's was forked a while ago and they're maintaining it themselves; I think 
they've picked up some changes from us.

DragonFly BSD is similar to FreeBSD's (not surprisingly, as DragonFly BSD was 
originally a fork of FreeBSD). It's also in contrib/tcpdump.
