Test program triggering a double unlock (w/o the MSG_DONTWAIT, it blocks
which it isn't supposed to do):

--------
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/socket.h>
#include <sys/un.h>
#include <unistd.h>

#define SUN_NAME	"\0other-is-me"

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
    struct sockaddr_un sun;
    unsigned max;
    int sk, rc;

    sk = socket(AF_UNIX, SOCK_DGRAM, 0);

    sun.sun_family = AF_UNIX;
    strncpy(sun.sun_path, SUN_NAME, sizeof(sun.sun_path));
    bind(sk, (struct sockaddr *)&sun, sizeof(sun));

    max = 12;
    do 
	sendto(sk, &sun, sizeof(sun), MSG_DONTWAIT,
	       (struct sockaddr *)&sun, sizeof(sun));
    while (--max);

    return 0;
}
