The support that is there is intended to allow implementations support 
socket options beyond those defined by the Java SE spec, it's not 
intended to allow someone using the API to pass in arbitrary values that 
the implementation uses without mapping.

I would suggest following up on net-dev (as jdk7u-dev is for discussions 
about the jdk7u releases).
