Another idea would be to look at adding raw sockets to the TCP/IP
stack and then maybe BPF/libpcap. Using RAW sockets is something that
comes up every so often. The code was taken out of the stack when it
was ported to eCos. I don't think it will be too hard to put it back
in again and write some test programs, etc.

FWIW, the eCos port of the EtherCAT master library <http://ethercatmaster.berlios.de/> would probably benefit from such raw socket support (and it would give you a test case :-)
