Very strange because the dummy device driver calls
ether_setup() which does:

        memset(dev->broadcast,0xFF, ETH_ALEN);

Probably tcpdump does not understand the link type, but that
also doesn't make sense since clearly the ifconfig output shows
"Ethernet" as the link encapsulation type.

Stumped...
