Currently the sysctl var net.unix.max_dgram_qlen has
0600 permissions..Need users to be able to read it..
Dont see any reason not to(?).
Applied, thanks.

Please use properly rooted patches in the future.
Ie. soemthing like:
--- a/linux/net/unix/sysctl_net_unix.c.orig Sat Apr 19 19:49:10 2003
+++ b/linux/net/unix/sysctl_net_unix.c Fri May 2 13:48:11 2003
Patches like yours don't work at all with the automated patch
scripts lots of us use to ease the burdon of applying lots
of patches.
In fact, even if I had changed into net/unix/ before applying
your patch, it would fail because there patch tries to patch
a file named sysctl_net_unix.c.new which of course does not
exist.
Please, this is very lazy and causes me to waste a lot of time fixing
up your patch which I should not have to do. :(
