Talking about 2.6.14 I meant this patch:
linux-2.6.13-af-packet.diff
<http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.drivers.openib/15484>
([PATCH] af_packet: Allow for > 8 byte hardware addresses) 
<http://news.gmane.org/find-root.php?message_id=%3cm1irwvhd5x.fsf%40ebiederm.dsl.xmission.com%3e>
applied for 2.6.14.

Probably the program will work without the patch, but I didn't test it.
