Is that something netperf should be using though? Right now it uses the regular
SO_[SND|RCV]BUF calls and is at the mercy of sysctls. I wonder if it would be
better to have it use their FORCE versions to make life easier on the
benchmarker - such as myself - who has an unfortunate habit of forgetting to
update sysctl.conf :)
