  It seems reasonable to me.
  Guy?

    Jeff> This file type will contain a header:

    Jeff> typedef struct _rawss7_hdr { /* NOTE: These are in network-byte
    Jeff> order. */ guint16 type; guint16 length; } rawss7_hdr;

  If you'd like to provide a header file containing that, we could include
it in libpcap, I guess, as informational.

  The next number for LINKTYPE_ is 139.
  I don't see a reason, given 32 bits of link type not to allocate the
additional three LINKTYPE_s you wanted. 

#define LINKTYPE_RAWSS7         139             /* see rawss7.h for */
#define LINKTYPE_RAWSS7_MTP2    140             /* information  on these */
#define LINKTYPE_RAWSS7_MTP3    141             /* definitions */
#define LINKTYPE_RAWSS7_SCCP    142             

  I took your email as semi-documentation for rawss7.h, which I would
invite you to submit patches for...
