Description
Unix domain sockets allow sending and receiving FDs through them. It would be nice to add this functionality to the unix-sockets egg. Ruby has a pretty convenient implementation of this, maybe it could be used as a reference. See http://apidock.com/ruby/UNIXSocket/send_io and http://apidock.com/ruby/UNIXSocket/recv_iop.
