Do you have any programming documentation for the Fore/Marconi card?  If
so, perhaps it discusses how to read raw packets using DLPI and indicates
how to figure out that it's lying when it says it's an Ethernet card, in
which case libpcap could be modified to work around that.
*If* some of the length and offset values returned in a DL_INFO_ACK DLPI message on a Fore/Marconi card are obviously wrong for Ethernet, that might let libpcap figure that out.
