Dear Lode

we observed problems like you when we went into the eventLoop without calling
sctp_registerInstance() before.
As I understand the code, the function sctp_registerInstance() must be the
very first SCTP-function called by ULP because the general initialisation is
done there.

Viele Gruesse
