Python sockets and recvmsg

[Heiko Wundram]

Hi all!

I've read up on unix domain sockets, and I've seen that you can send out of 
bound messages such as sending the processes credentials over the socket. 
Receiving this requires to call recvmsg, which seems to be unavailable on the 
standard Python socket type.

How would you go about implementing this functionality? I don't think that a 
standard recv() does what I want...
