I know what the RFC says.  But there are a gazillion of protocols out
there and I won't create a record for all of them in case socktype and
protocol are zero.  That's just overkill in 99.9% of all cases.

I assumption is that UDPlite is just too specialized to be useful to a
wide array of people.  Yes, it case be supported if explicitly requested
but should be returned if 0/0 is passed in.

What I'm asking is whether this is a fair assumption and what the story
of DCCP is.
