For all the details on SVR4 sockets, take a look at

	%T Implementing Berkeley Sockets in System V Release 4
	%A I. Vessey
	%A G. Skinner
	%J Proceedings of the 1990 Winter USENIX Conference
	%C Washington, D.C.
	%P 177-193
	%D 1990

In summary, the paper says that it takes both a user library
(socklib) and a streams module (sockmod) to provide sockets
over streams.
