test_timetolive(_v6) works for me, In lksctp-tools/src/func_tests, I had
another case failed,./test_1_to_1_events,  it's caused by:
commit 30f6ebf65bc46161c5aaff1db2e6e7c76aa4a06b

    sctp: add SCTP_AUTH_NO_AUTH type for AUTHENTICATION_EVENT

It's not kernel's issue, after that commit, ./test_1_to_1_events should
have been improved. or avoid it by 'sysctl -w net.sctp.auth_enable=1'

I'm not sure why test_timetolive(_v6) is not working in your env.
