the attached patch add support for the recently introduced pcap
bluetooth data link type. Yes, pcap is going to support also bluetooth
devices (at least on Linux) :-)

As I noted on tcpdump-workers when I checked in one of my libpcap commits for the BT support, hcidump is, I think, ported to some BSDs, so if some ambitious developer were to extract the BT sniffing code from those ports and incorporate them into libpcap, it'll support BT sniffing on those BSDs as well.
