I've now pushed a fix for that sendto bug, and your test case runs without error 
on the topic/af_unix branch.

By the way, I think the implementation of sendto/recv for datagrams is very 
inefficient when there are repeated calls to sendto as in your test case. 
Nevertheless, your test case actually runs slightly faster on the topic/af_unix 
branch than it does on master (when the latter succeeds, which it does about 
half the time for me).  So I'm not sure whether it's worth worrying about this.

Here's the issue, briefly.  The communication is done via a Windows named pipe. 
  The receiver creates the pipe when it creates and binds its socket.  It 
creates only one pipe instance.  The sender connects to the pipe, writes, and 
closes its handle.  But the pipe is not available for another sender to connect 
to until the receiver reads the message, after which it disconnects the sender.
