I think the correct approach is to check for !(si_flags & SI_NAMED) as
done in rev. 1.68 of sys/net/bpf.c (that rev. has a precedence bug,
which has since been fixed).  That was written by phk, who I take to
be pretty authoritative on the subject; looking at the places SI_NAMED
is used also supports this conclusion.

A corrected patch is attached (although I didn't test it in the
non-devfs case).

Thanks!
