  Description     : Python extension to pass file descriptors across UNIX 
domain sockets

This simple extension provides two functions to pass and receive file
descriptors across UNIX domain sockets, using the BSD-4.3+ sendmsg() and
recvmsg() interfaces. Direct bindings to sendmsg() and recvmsg() are not
provided, as the API does not map nicely into Python.

Please note that this only supports BSD-4.3+ style file descriptor passing, and
was only tested on Linux.
