Hello,
	So I've been working on this passing file descriptor between
processes thing. And I've gotten something that works well.  I'm using
cygwin_attach_handle_to_fd to create the file descriptor.  Unfortunately I
can't seem to see how to create a Unix Domain socket (AF_UNIX) using this.
I've traced through all the source and can't seem to find the place to do
it.

	I've also heard talk that the cygserver can be used to pass file
descriptors.  But I can't find the information to do it.

Thanks,
David
