A little further research shows that this cannot be the explanation:
$ cat /proc/net/raw
sl local_address rem_address st tx_queue rx_queue tr tm->when retrnsmt uid
timeout inode
0: 00000000:0001 00000000:0000 07 00000000:00000000 00:00000000 00000000 0
0 0
1: 00000000:0006 00000000:0000 07 00000000:00000000 00:00000000 00000000 0
0 0
So even when no "netstat" is running these two raw sockets are open.
