It looks to me like 4.4bsd derived systems implement a udp option,
        INP_RECVDSTADDR
that will result in getting IP address the packet was sent to.
I don't know if linux implements this, and I can't find any evidence
solaris has this option, but this might be useful on systems that
do support this.
