The LOR is obviously being triggered by ip_output()'s acquisition of
in_multi_mtx, due to a datagram being sent to a multicast destination
and a subsequent lookup being required.


This makes sense.

I can't think of a reason why a user would wish to supply any multicast
socket options to a divert socket, other than the 'small' ones, i.e.
IP_MULTICAST_TTL/IF/LOOP/VIF.


Why would these options ever be set on the divert socket itself though?
To me it would make sense if these options were set on the network
socket that originally sent the multicast packet itself.
