Thanks.

Ok, but I should see a difference in the generated code, right?

union sctp_addr is a union of sockaddr_in structs, for easy reference
ipv6 being:
struct sockaddr_in6 {
        short unsigned int         sin6_family;          /*     0     2 */
        __be16                     sin6_port;            /*     2     2 */
        __be32                     sin6_flowinfo;        /*     4     4 */
        struct in6_addr            sin6_addr;            /*     8    16 */
        __u32                      sin6_scope_id;        /*    24     4 */

Current code:
    12a1:       ba 0a 00 00 00          mov    $0xa,%edx
    12a6:       49 8b 5f 68             mov    0x68(%r15),%rbx
    12aa:       66 89 55 a0             mov    %dx,-0x60(%rbp)

    12ae:       4d 8d 4f 68             lea    0x68(%r15),%r9

    12bd:       48 89 55 b0             mov    %rdx,-0x50(%rbp)
                                     thus this     ---^

                  and this are the ipv6 addr bytes ---^

They are the same, and messed up by the compiler breaking the copy of
the ipv6 addr (which was copied backwards) with the port number copy.
