As a kernel interface that provides access to global namespaces connect(2)
cannot be called in capability mode. I looked at the capsicum(4) man page again
now, and it certainly seems we need a more thorough explanation in there. This
statement alludes to connect(2) not being available:

> capability mode
>   A process mode, entered by invoking cap_enter(2), in which access

but it's certainly not a sufficient guide for refactoring existing applications
for applying Capsicum.
