Now I'm sure that libuv does not support Unix Domain sockets with type
SOCK_DGRAM (AKA Unix datagram sockets):

https://github.com/joyent/libuv/blob/master/src/unix/stream.c#L925


I've also found a thread in the Node mailing list announcing the drop
of Unix datagram sockets (in 2011):

https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/nodejs/iCzhcuxGP1I

I expect that such an announcement should be done (or at least also)
in the libuv mailing list, rahter than just in the Node mailing list
(for all those libuv users not interested at all in Node).

Regards.
