Heiko,

I will check this problem. Maybe unsorted list of interfaces in /proc/net/dev 
is by error, not by design. Or maybe not.
I will test my patch in both 32-bit and 64-bit compilation, because, as for 
now I only tested it on 32-bit compilation on my router.

Iptraf code is old and raw, so there can be surprises with completly 
succesfull patching. As you now, there is try of reneval of iptraf, named 
iptraf-ng, but without serious changes. I was not sure, what I should patch: 
iptraf or iptraf-ng? So my changes was very delicate, possible to adopting on 
iptraf-ng too. So this patch is as for now, rather for testing, not for final 
application.

But iptraf is still a very handy tool, so is worth adopting to current kernels.
