Thank you very much for hints! 

I have found that it did not try to load libsctp at all.

When I clear everything and run ./configure and make again it works now.

Thanks again for support.

The symptom you describe:

suggests that the emulator has/finds no sctp support.

Check your build logs, that you run what you build
and then check whith strace what happens during emulator start:

$ strace -f -o strace.txt erl
Erlang R13B04 (erts-5.7.5.1) [64-bit] [smp:4:4] [rq:4] [async-threads:0] [kernel-poll:false]

Eshell V5.7.5.1  (abort with ^G)
1> [Ctrl-\]
$

$ less strace.txt # search for libsctp

There should be a section that tries to load libsctp.so from
several locations and one should succeed or the sctp socket
open will fail. Such as:

13418 open("/home/raimo/lib/tls/x86_64/libsctp.so.1", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
13418 open("/home/raimo/lib/tls/libsctp.so.1", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
13418 open("/home/raimo/lib/x86_64/libsctp.so.1", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
13418 open("/home/raimo/lib/libsctp.so.1", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
13418 open("/opt/local/lib/tls/x86_64/libsctp.so.1", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
13418 open("/opt/local/lib/tls/libsctp.so.1", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
13418 open("/opt/local/lib/x86_64/libsctp.so.1", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
13418 open("/opt/local/lib/libsctp.so.1", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
13418 open("/usr/local/lib/tls/x86_64/libsctp.so.1", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
13418 open("/usr/local/lib/tls/libsctp.so.1", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
13418 open("/usr/local/lib/x86_64/libsctp.so.1", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
13418 open("/usr/local/lib/libsctp.so.1", O_RDONLY) = 7
