The whole purpose of this SRFI is not supporting BSD style socket but
providing commonly used procedures so that users can avoid to write own
implementation dependent layers. And as far as I know, not all
implementations support BSD style socket and it will be a lot of work to
support it for them.
I think other SRFI can support BSD style socket interface and based on
that this SRFI can be implemented.
