We have a lot of code supporting the socketcall syscalls, but none of it is tested. This would have caught #180.

Research direction

Locate the socketcall syscall support and the existing syscall test entry points, then read the tests around the supported API. Run the relevant test suite and extend coverage for the supported socketcall calls, including a regression for #180; done means those paths are exercised by tests.
