Of course we cannot drop this.

It is very inconvenient to have some RTL-stick on a machine with
multiple network interfaces if it is bound to a specific one.
So we break up this and make this dynamically.
The -a option therefore is not needed any longer.
?!?
And what if you _want_ to bind it to a specific IP ? If you have several interface and just listen to all,
just use -a 0.0.0.0 ...
I remember having trouble in the past with this during
another project,
i think it was if there where two subnets on same physical interface
(agree, that isn't a normal situation, but existing).
Problem was that ip-stack used as source address always the first e.g.
the lower one defined on the interface, this doesn't happen with the
passive flag.
I will double check this again and resend some V2.
