Description
java.net.AbstractPlainSocketImpl.socketGetOption1 is an abstract method and therefore is required to be implemented by all its subclasses. This method is either implemented as a no-op or is defined to be native ( and there is no native implementation! ). It is a  customer  job then that this method is never called. It appears to be remnants of the IPv6 work that was carried out for Windows during the 1.5 timeframe. It should be removed.

Both java.net.NetworkInterface.getSubnet0 and java.net.NetworkInterface.getBroadcast0 are also unimplemented and should be removed.
