You've added all this extra functionality to pass arbitrary
options, but then not used it in any of the later patches.
We've been trying to remove complexity from this code, so
I'm not in favour of adding new functionality that is not
even used.

I'm not seeing the point of adding the support for the O_NONBLOCK
in the listener socket either - that can easily be turned on after
you have the listener socket created.

Daniel
