The problem is that in linux I have to add the sctp library (i.e.

if there is a better way to do this I am eager to learn it.
Not necessarily "better", but if sctp exists on Linux, but not on FreeBSD (or
more generally, if sctp should be linked against whenever it is found), an
option is
find_library( SCTP_LIBRARY sctp )
target_link_libraries( your_exec ${SCTP_LIBRARY} )
Good idea, but I believe you would also need the following modification to
the above logic
find_library( SCTP_LIBRARY sctp )
if(SCTP_LIBRARY)
target_link_libraries( your_exec ${SCTP_LIBRARY} )
endif(SCTP_LIBRARY)
The reason for the extra logic is that if libsctp is not found then
SCTP_LIBRARY with be set to "SCTP_LIBRARY-NOTFOUND" which would screw up
"target_link_libraries" without the "if" protection.
