Thanks for your help, as suggested the combination of IP_HDRINCL and reading Stevens seems to have me back on the right path. Part of the confusion was the Linux implementation of IP_HDRINCL appears to need the hardware addresses writing as well, consequently there are lots of examples of this being done in order to forge arp replies etc - not what I needed. Or rather, it was actually. Anyway, the code is now refusing to send packets entirely, which is actually good because it implies a checksum is broken somewhere and that's a bug, not a misunderstanding about the API.
