>Description:
	All the FreeBSD 7.x documentation I've seen for SCTP refers to it as:

	Stream Transmission Control Protocol

	This is incorrect.  It's actually Stream Control Transmission Protocol,
	which makes more sense (in regards to what it does), and when expanding
	the acronym itself.
>How-To-Repeat:
	n/a
>Fix:
	sctp.4 needs to be updated, for sure.  I'm not sure what other docs
	refer to the incorrectly-expanded acronym.

	The GENERIC kernel configuration also needs its # comment updated too.
