hpa,

Patch file is attached and applies the following:

-- All tftp client console output moved to stderr with exception to the recv'd data stream.
-- Added logic for tftp client recv'd data to be sent to stdout when - is given as the local file.
-- Added logic for the added functionality to be handled directly from the CLI.
-- Updated man page
-- Updated spec file change log
