Why?  A netperf UDP_STREAM test is "purely" unidirectional (*).  I 
suspect the numbers look funny thanks to the 32-bit compilation bugs 
(format statement issues).

Apart from updating to the top of trunk bits from 
http://www.netperf.org/svn/netperf2/trunk , another way to run the test 
with the existing bits would be to get the explicit "omni" output going 
with something akin to:

netperf -H 192.168.0.1 -t omni -c -l 10 -- -T UDP -m 1500

raj@...dy:~/netperf2_trunk$ src/netperf -t omni -H localhost -c -l 10 -- 
-T udp -m 1500
OMNI Send TEST from 0.0.0.0 (0.0.0.0) port 0 AF_INET to 
localhost.localdomain () port 0 AF_INET

    -1.00  U      1.071   -1.000  usec/KB

Or to avoid the wraps, use the keyval output format:

raj@...dy:~/netperf2_trunk$ src/netperf -t omni -H localhost -c -l 10 -- 
-T udp -m 1500 -k
OMNI Send TEST from 0.0.0.0 (0.0.0.0) port 0 AF_INET to 
localhost.localdomain () port 0 AF_INET
LSS_SIZE_END=1390392
LSS_SIZE_END=1390392
LOCAL_SEND_SIZE=1500
ELAPSED_TIME=10.00
THROUGHPUT=12640.22
THROUGHPUT_UNITS=10^6bits/s
LOCAL_CPU_UTIL=41.19
LOCAL_CPU_METHOD=S
REMOTE_CPU_UTIL=-1.00
REMOTE_CPU_METHOD=U
LOCAL_SD=1.068
REMOTE_SD=-1.000
SD_UNITS=usec/KB

One could also whittle the output down by using the omni output 
selectors -

* well, there may be a stray, delayed TCP ACKnowledgement on the control 
connection while the UDP traffic is flowing, but even that I believe 
will be from netperf to netserver - ie in the direction the UDP_STREAM 
traffic is going
