# I am therefore thinking of tossing all incoming IP packets that do not

I find that only exotic things, the kinds you don't want, have ip_hl != 5.
You should do fine like that.
(However there is a TCP header option (not ip header options)
that happens on most TCP streams -- the Max Segment Size option.)
