There is one side effect in changing the code which is actually a big advantage: these sockets are also available under Windows through the Mutex system. (The code exists, but isn't tested yet. It is copied from the Sylpheed sources, thanks)
Hmmm I haven't read that before, and it is a big WOW if it does work but... can you point me anywhere to read about this way of making AF_UNIX available in Windows ? because that is just contrary to any information I was able to google for (perhaps I don't know the magic words, though).
Please read the code completely: socket_fd_connect_unix() is only used for Unix-like systems, for Windows socket_fd_connect_inet() will be used.
And as I mentioned before, I didn't test it yet under Windows.
Have to go now, will answer more verbosely tomorrow.
