Hello everyone,

Just to clarify;

I am not really concerned about the form of addresses passed to
seldomly called initialization or association establishment functions,
such as sctp_registerInstance and sctp_associate.
As it has been pointed out, this has obviously little or no impact on
performance. My problem is with passing addresses as strings to
sctp_socketCallback functions and doing conversions in dispatch_event().

However, it would be nice to use a consistent form for both initialization
and socketCallback functions, although it isn't technically required.
