I hadn't used this feature before either, but it certainly got me interested so I configured a router to do "ip traffic export". Unfortunately my test-setup was limited so I could not route traffic *trough* the box. But I was able to see the incoming packets as they were forwarded to the wireshark-pc by the router. No additional headers were present. So basically the L2 layer was replaced by "<wireshark-pc-mac><cisco-router-mac>0800". Could you indeed post a capture with a few frames that show the extra header?
