Sebek detection

In the Know Your Enemy: Sebek whitepaper from honeynet.org, under the heading "Client Packet Export", it is made clear that "[Sebek] modifies the kernel such that the system is unable to see Sebek Packets, not just the packets generated by the local host, but any appropriatly configured Sebek Packet." I'm sort of new at Sebek and haven't actually tested this idea out, but from the documentation, it seems there would be a pretty easy way to detect sebek running on a honeypot. Why not just construct a sebek packet with some sort of packet generation tool (maybe nemesis?) and send it onto the network, then see if it can be seen by a regular tcpdump or snort session? --Cleverduck
