        src/share/man/man4: ip.4
        src/sys/netinet: in.h in_pcb.h ip_output.c tcp_input.c

Log Message:
Add the IP_MINTTL socket option.

The IP_MINTTL option may be used on SOCK_STREAM sockets to discard
packets with a TTL lower than the option value.

Why is the only available on SOCK_STREAM sockets? The BFD draft spec
suggest similar filtering for UDP as well which would make this
option very useful for SOCK_DGRAM sockets as well.

        Kind regards
