Summary
  1. Set SO_BROADCAST and send to INADDR_BROADCAST. This one is broken since at least FreeBSD 6.0, see bug 99558. Today it sends packet to a non-broadcast link level address.
  2. Set SO_BROADCAST, set IP_ONESBCAST and send to local broadcast address.
  3. Set SO_BROADCAST and send to local broadcast address.

For each test we bind a second socket to check whether the broadcast
is actually received.
