I have looked on it. And it will not work since UDPCP is UDP. And so
IPPROTO_UDP (17) is still handled by the UDP handler.

Despite this it will also make no sense to rewrite the whole UDP socket
layer.

The only thing i have found with comes near to my requirements is the
rxrpc module, but i see no real different to my solution.
