If you need guaranteed delivery of the data, why not just use a TCP connection to the unix socket, instead of a UDP connection which inherently can lose data? In that case I don't think your patch would be needed.
I didn't look at the source, so perhaps I missed something.
UDS is not UDP.
We use the UDS (Unix domain sockets) to talk to a master process. Twisted has support for this. But you need a small patch to avoid data lose.
UDS does not lose data and is message based, not bytes based. We use pickle to encode requests and responses.
