The ChangeLog seems pretty clear on the matter, I could see but one
change to fix a Mauve regression dated 2001-11-25.

cvs diff -r 1.9 -r 1.10 DatagramSocket.java

Essentially we didn't have this functionality implemented in the
native library where getOption is defined and the test was failing.  I
determined it was stupid to bother with the native method call since
the value can be stored locally in class private data (and it never
changes).
