Comment (by robreim):
The only thing "broken" by this change should be "sendTo" and "recvFrom"
in the Network module, both of which are recommended against in the
documentation. In the documents words: "Their use is strongly discouraged
except for small test-applications or invocations from the command line.".
So the only "breakage" that I'm aware of would be removing a couple of
relatively useless functions and replacing them with equivalents which can
be used in production.
I've also made quite a lot of effort to make sure it works with AF_UNIX,
so I'm not sure what you mean by a restriction to AF_INET.
If you can clarify what you mean by these two statements, I'll work on
fixing the issues.
