Are you sure this is correct for little endian guests? I've only
desk-checked it rather than running a test program, but it looks
to me like you end up passing the wrong value to socket().
Also it seems rather involved since we swap things three times and
have an entirely new abi_* function. Either I'm completely confused
or it should be enough to just have
if (type == SOCK_PACKET) {
protocol = tswap16(protocol);
}
