{bb} netstat larrd graph on Linux incorrect

[Tom Schmidt <tschmidt@micron.com>]

Has anyone corrected the known issue on Linux where the "netstat -s" 
output reports TCP throughput in segments rather than bytes?  This makes 
the LARRD graphs reporting of bits/second incorrect.  See 
http://larrd.packetpushers.com/fom-serve/cache/4.html for a report of 
this issue.

A rough conversion of segments to bytes would be to multiply by the MSS 
of 1460 (assuming MTU=1500).  Should this conversion go somewhere in the 
netstat-bf.sh code or elsewhere?

Thanks...Tom
