Hum, looks like for such short lived tcpdump sessions, we also need to
disable buffered mode. Otherwise tcpdump can be killed before it
actually processed the packets.

Also there's another problem, with the xfrmudp tests not recording the
correct PID in ${nettest_pids}.

I'll send v2 to also fix all these problems.
