What were you expecting it to do?  I.e., what would it do if it were
working, and what's it doing instead of working?

I tried such a command line, with the current CVS version of Ethereal
(although that code path hasn't changed in a while, so it should at
least work with recent releases) and Ethereal displayed a capture
showing only packets coming from IP address aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd.
