Hello Phillipe,

Do you know how to do file descriptor passing on hppa and dec alpha?

Probably I need a special header file to get the sendmsg to work on
DEC alpha OSF/1 and HP-UX, could you find out which header files I am
missing?

Would it be ok if I did this?

#ifndef _XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED
#define _XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED 1
#endif
#include <sys/socket.h>

I have commited a fix for this.
