This support is legacy, and should be relatively safe to remove as such implementations do not compile with JDK 1.4 or newer.

However, the current behaviour in `DatagramSocketImpl` is to throw an `UnsupportedOperationsException` for a method not implemented. Should this set of changes update the `joinGroup` and `leaveGroup` methods in order to preserve this behaviour?
