I started working on it. My code allows me to save captures which can be
read by ethereal, but not by a real sniffer (It complains about the
version, but I can't understand why...).
However, it is useful for me because it can save filtered X.25 captures.
If anybody is interested, I'll send a patch to the list tomorrow (I
won't commit it until it works with a real sniffer).
