Instead of writing a fake Ethernet header You could write an exported pdu
header.
I'm not sure that would help you but it gets rid of the faked layer and you
can add meta data in the exported pdu section should you want to.

is that the number and meaning of the “columns” in the log is not
predictable – it depends on the web log format settings.  Therefore the
first entry in the pcap-ng file contains the name of the field, a
definition of the data type and the column position.  In the dissector, I
read this first record and then set up an hf_register_info array.  That’s
the background, now my question.
