    Michael Kerrisk  [Carlos O'Donell, David Miller, Tetsuo Handa]
        Various additions and rewordings
            Notable changes:
            * Clarify some details for pathname sockets.
            * Add some advice on portably coding with pathname sockets.
            * Note the "buggy" behavior for pathname sockets when
              the supplied pathname is 108 bytes (after a report by
              Tetsuo Handa).
