New issue 7409 by [hidden email]: SCTP support in the VM and Pharo
http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=7409

SCTP is required for SIGTRAN support and it is built-in to FreeBSD and  
Linux. I began with an implementation.

There is a merge request on gitorious for the low-level SCTP handling in  
the unix socket code. I am allocating the socket type 3 for SCTP and began  
adding basic support. I am exposing SCTP as a bi-directional stream so most  
of the operations known from TCP can be used on SCTP as well. On top of  
that I am exposing some datagram like functionality.

I have also extended the Network-Kernel code in a very basic way to support  
SCTP. MontiCello packages for CMakeVMMaker, NetworkKernel and VMMaker are  
available on my smalltalkhub project  
(http://smalltalkhub.com/#!/~hfreyther2/sctp/source).
