The BSDs, more specifically bpf, directly enqueue link-layer packets to the interface output buffer, whose size is not tweakable at run-time.

Your libnet_toggle_buffered_output() incorrectly assumes the FD is a socket. You might try:

if (getsockopt( ... ) != 0) {

	if (errno == ENOTSOCK)
		// silently return
		return 0;
	else
		...
