i think Andre's question was this:
normally we use {set|get}sockopt() to configure the socket
as desired for special features (e.g. multicast is one).

It already does. These are wrappers, not actual syscalls.
Why is it undesirable to use the same kind of overloading
for sctp ?

An API is specified for SCTP already. Being forced to shoehorn all possible semantics into a getsockopt()/setsockopt() call *sucks* for serious work.

why? The API says it can be implemented via a set of library entry points. How would you tell the difference?
