I'm not sure I understand send/recv over Unix domain stream sockets (is this
possible?)  Also, aren't writes less than a PIPEBUF (i.e atomic?)


Also, I see msg_accrights/msg_accrightslen was changed to
msg_control/msg_controllen...was this a change from 4.3 to 4.4?

Can the receive tell how many fd's were passed?  I assume you
need to fill the fd array with -1 to tell what got changed...

What happens if the receiver doesn't provide space for the fds?
