I did get some intermittent failures with the other SCTP tests - they don't seem much stable - but the new proposed test was failing all the time. I suspect that using `lsof` to figure out whether the file descriptor was closed is not reliable/portable enough. I also tried to modify the test to use /othervm - which is probably a good idea if you don't want your results to be polluted by whatever other test might have run previously/concurrently in the agent VM - but to no avail: the test was still failing 100% of the time.

@masyano Thanks for providing this fix. If you integrate as instructed in [1] I will sponsor this change for you.
