SCTP sockopt discrepancy between 2.4 and 2.6.

The 2.4 and 2.6 SCTP code have _different_ values for the SCTP_*
sockopts. The 2.4 version claims to implement
draft-ietf-tsvwg-sctpsocket-04.txt while the 2.6 version implements
draft-ietf-tsvwg-sctpsocket-07.txt.

This means that tools compiled with the current libraries and header
files cannot work on the 2.4 kernel.

Am I missing something -- like perhaps the existence of a patch to
update the 2.4 kernel -- or is the SCTP implementation in 2.4 no longer
being maintained, and no longer compatible with 2.6 and its userspace?
