yes only once. I've now put the same sua code through SCTP lib pre6 and
pre9.
Pre9 generates a segfault, while pre6 doesn't.
Thought first it had something to do with different releases of the SCTP lib
being present on the system and my makefile which looks like a battlefield.
Tried to clean it out and after some fights manage to have only one refernce
to the lib and H file in the usr/local/include and /usr/local/lib
Didn't help a bit when putting pre9 files there only. Then used the pre6
which did the job. Let it run between a pre6 and pre9 PC. The pre6 did its
sctp_receive just fine, while in the other direction, yep the pre9 produced
a nice segfault.

I'll make a tarball with the relevant modules.
