Alfred is right, we should add uipc_ctloutput() as method for
SOCK_SEQPACKET on local sockets.

But your code actually fails because you request SOL_SOCKET
level.

LOCAL_CREDS is protocol level option, not socket.

socket(AF_LOCAL, SOCK_DGRAM, 0);
setsockopt(sock, 0, LOCAL_CREDS, &oval, sizeof(oval));

P.S. I will look at issue with SOCK_SEQPACKET.
According to manual page, it should work.
