One oddity of original BPF test is that it constructs an mbuf where there
is no Ethernet header.  Didn't want to change that since not only
would the constructor have to be changed but also the hand written
BPF programs as well.

Not necessarily a bug, but the test is not doing what any application
using BPF on incoming mbuf's would expect to do.
