The show_tcphdr_ flag is used to display some info placed into packets
by the "full tcp" agents.  It is not used by any of the other TCP agents.
If you are using full tcp, you will want to enable this flag, and you
will want to use the full tcp agent code in the "current" directory
instead of the code in the last official release (which has some bugs that have
been fixed).
