Well, determining whether that's the case is part of this exercise.

IPv4 0.0.0.0 is 
traditionally an synonym for old style all broadcast (255.255.255.255) 
on UDP/RAW and it's certainly possible to connect() to that. 

Where do you get this from?  And where is this implemented?  I don't
doubt it but I have to convince people to change the standard and
possibly introduce incompatibility.
