lists this as 'superseded', among with the older versions of the patch
which changed the error handling. But at least, I couldn't find anything
superseding it. This was supposed to address the different-but-related
problem demonstrated by the following (slightly modified) test program:

Because the receiver has to wait for the message, it will hit the
continue in unix_stream_read_generic. This causes the size-check of the
do-while loop to be executed which terminates the loop as the size is
zero without copying the credential information.

Just wondering if this might have been lost in the noise ...

I think the patch got lost, probably just resending is the easiest solution. ;)

For the patch:
