Thanks for checking. Here's a suggestion for paragraph 4 that tweaks it 
to make it clearer that it is only interesting for connecting sockets:

      * <p> The socket option is supported by both stream-oriented 
connecting and
      * datagram-oriented sockets. The value of the socket option is 
{@code 0} when
      * the socket is not bound or a packet has not been received. The 
value is
      * also {@code 0} for stream-oriented listening sockets.
