I admit that I'm a bit confused as well, but errno(3) in my linux box
says:

 EOPNOTSUPP      Operation not supported on socket (POSIX.1-2001).

                 (ENOTSUP  and  EOPNOTSUPP have the same value on Linux,
                 but according to POSIX.1 these error values  should  be
                 distinct.)

so... it's the same? :D

It's probably better to use EOPNOTSUPP to avoid confusion in the future
anyway tho.
