I appreciate that, but choosing between "give a feature to some" and
"don't give it anyone", I'm not sure that being identical on all
platforms is ideal.
Besides, UNIX sockets are pretty darned cross-platform. I'm not aware
of any system that has "users" that doesn't have UNIX sockets.
Finally, I propose none of this as default behavior. If I have my
way, you will be able to run spamc/spamd via UNIX sockets as an
option. If your system doesn't support them, then do what you always
did.
