Interestingly, "sysctl -a -N" spits out names, but then seems to fall
into a rut:

net.inet.udp.stats
net.inet.udp.maxdgram
net.inet.udp.recvspace
net.inet.udp.pcblist
net.inet.udp.log_in_vain
net.inet.udp.blackhole
net.inet.udp.getcred
net.inet.accf.unloadable
net.inet.accf.373
net.inet.accf.373
net.inet.accf.373
net.inet.accf.373
net.inet.accf.373
net.inet.accf.373
net.inet.accf.373

Looks as if it's looping with no termination conditions being matched.
