I am fairly sure it is #2.  I'm fairly sure packet_trace_header is the structure (in aixif/net_if.h)

I'm all set to open a bug report but I don't see the point unless someone just wants to look.  I have two data files ready to upload.  One is an aix iptrace with -B -S 128 without -T and the other is a tcpdump taken on a Mac with -s 128 of a single ftp get to the Mac of a 1 meg file.

Thank you for your time,
