Well, there the first is, anyway; the other two were just copies of the
first.  The other two I wanted were:

	print *(frame_data *)0xbfbff3c8
	print *(struct pcap_pkthdr *)0x83f515c

can you get those as well?

Well, the length is either the maximum 32-bit unsigned integer, or -1,
which isn't right, and the reported length is *very* wrong.

Something's wrong; the information from

	print *(struct pcap_pkthdr *)0x83f515c

might give us a clue (that reports what libpcap gave to Ethereal).
