  The socket buffer with SCTP is just not something thats workable. There are
  all sorts of pre-defined notions that closely align a socket buffer to stream-of-bytes
  semantics of TCP. With UDP its never an issue, since you have all un-ordered who
  cares up come the messages.
  
  With SCTP there are all sorts of interesting ordering constraints and settings that
  make it so that you can't just read from a linear socket buffer.
  
  We definitely would need a completely different abstraction!
