I think that's for the case where the modules is built on an OS that supports 
TCP_USER_TIMEOUT (#ifdef TCP_USER_TIMEOUT is true), and the module is used on 
an older OS that doesn't support TCP_USER_TIMEOUT.  I remember I was sometimes 
able to do such a thing on Linux and Solaris.  If we don't have to handle such 
usage, I agree about removing the special handling of ENOTPROTO.
