One interesting omission is that we don't allow sockets in the abstract namespace. The API won't let you pass these sockets because they contain a '\0' character in the middle of the string. Therefore this patch doesn't need to deal with those. However we should in future allow that, probably using the '@' character to stand in for the NUL byte, as is used in a few other places (eg. this is used by the ‘netstat’ program). Rich.
