Description From Rajib Bhattacharjea 2008-04-04 16:54:15 EDT

The InternetStackHelper keeps a static list of open tracefiles, which don't
ever get cleaned up.  Some kind of cleanup function needs to be scheduled for
simulator destroy time.

Didn't attempt to anticipate what user wanted.  Every simulation results in
overwriting pcap files.  If user wants to save, must do so manually at
inter-simulation time.
