Hm, do you think that's portable?

There is already code in the postmaster to touch the socket lock file
every few minutes, so as to keep tmp-cleaners from zapping it.  (Or at
least there once was; I can't find it right now.)  If we could do the
same for the socket file it'd be really nice.  But I didn't think there
was any portable way to update the mod timestamp on a socket.
