OK, so the new format is that the frame begins with a measurement header, which 
is followed by the bitstream from the bus?

Is the bitstream from the bus padded in that fashion?

        https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FlexRay

a frame consists of some framing bits at each end of the frame, with each octet 
in the frame containing 2 bits of per-byte framing followed by the 8 bits of 
the octet.  Would LINKTYPE_FLEXRAY/DLT_FLEXRAY frames include all of those 
bits?  If so, where does the padding appear?
