A solution for fuser and lsof (at least) would be to use the new
netlink-based API where available (like "ss -ax" does on recent
systems) that doesn't have the problem.
For lsof, that would also mean (for linux-3.3 and above) that it
could display information about the peer of the socket (like it
does with lsof -E for pipes).
