This is really annoying for flags like > TCP_NODELAY, ie TF_NODELAY (ie user-settable flags via setsockopt()). The traditional behaviour (not just FreeBSD) has been that only SO_DEBUG, SO_DONTROUTE, SO_KEEPALIVE, SO_LINGER, SO_OOBINLINE, SO_RCVBUF and SO_SNDBUF are inherited. A program shouldn't expect others to be inherited, although this is somewhat ill-defined by the specs.
