Do we want relative time stamps (-ttt, for secs/usecs since previous packet, and -ttttt, for secs/usecs since first packet) to be printed as HH:MM:SS.UUUUUU, or seconds.UUUUUU?

in the sense of having an indicator wether this is a relative/or absolute 
timestamp ?

The original "-ttt" was, I think, clearly broken, as no decimal point was printed if the delta was less than 1 second, and a space was printed after the decimal point if the delta was >= 1 second, so fixing that is definitely right.

OpenBSD prints them as seconds.UUUUUU, rather than HH:MM:SS.UUUUUU.

saw that and i deliberatly decided against it i.e.
to print HH:MM:SS.UUUUUU as it IMHO makes things easier to read for
long-term traces ...
