But if 1501-1535 are invalid, maybe at the very least an Expert Info should

Yes.

My copy of version 1 of the DEC/Intel/Xerox Ethernet spec doesn't say anything
about valid type field
values, unless I missed it.  Perhaps version 2 does; in any case, perhaps we
should dissect frames with
type/length fields in that range as invalid rather than as having a type *or*
length field.

OK, I committed a change so those invalid Ethernet frames will be dissected as
such, and added an expert info as well.  Not quite sure what to do in
capture_eth() though, as I'm not completely sure what that function is for;
maybe you could have a look?
