    be added with some annoying combination of "DuplicateHandle" and
    "WSADuplicateSocket" but I don't care enough to implement it at this
    time.

    If there are multiple outstanding filehandles to be sent, for
    performance reasons this module could (on BSD4.4 systems) batch them
    together into one "cmsg" and then execute one "sendmsg()" system call.
    Unfortunately, that would make the close-dup trick less efficient. Maybe
    there is a sweet spot?

    It would be nice to auto-detect the best interface (BSD4.4/BSD4.3/SysV)
    to use for a given system.
