xap_helper currently relies on FDs passed via SCM_RIGHTS for
robustness against $TMPDIR failures and over-eager FS cleanup
tasks.  This depends on stable syscall numbers (Linux) or
Inline::C||Socket::MsgHdr being available, though, as Perl5
itself doesn't support SCM_RIGHTS.

We could probably add FIFO support to xap_helper for portability
to systems where neither Inline::C nor Socket::MsgHdr are available,
but that's for another day.
