Sorry!  I forgot to say that we are running 3.0.17.  That does not help.  I quote from
the manual page for recvmsg:
                                 ...  The msg_accrights and
     msg_accrightslen fields are ignored, but present in the
     structure to retain compatibility with other versions of
     UNIX.

Well, 800 numbers don't work from Sweden :-)
I will make a more formal request for an upgrade to sendmsg/recvmsg.
