Try the 1.0.8 beta. This version has the same API and contains various bug
fixes. Version 1.0.5 is *really* out of date.

If there is a threading problem, check your own application's locking
functions. sctplib relies on the application (i.e. your own code) to do all
necessary locking for supporting multiple threads.
