It's not a byte order problem.  Here is the fix:

diff -c -r1.2 -r1.3
*** libpcap.c   1999/11/11 23:45:19     1.2
--- libpcap.c   1999/11/11 23:45:46     1.3
***************
*** 74,79 ****
--- 74,84 ----
        guint32 ts_usec;        /* timestamp microseconds */
        guint32 incl_len;       /* number of octets of packet saved in file */
        guint32 orig_len;       /* actual length of packet */
+ #ifdef linux
+       gint32 ifindex;
+       guint16 protocol;
+       unsigned char pkt_type;
+ #endif
  };
  
  static int libpcap_read(wtap *wth, int *err);

(I'll let you folks supply the right type for pkt_type)
