That Cyrus patch indicates an OS bug, so I had a look at the FreeBSD
revision history and found the following. This change is not present
in the Darwin source, so it's a bug in Mac OS X.

getpeername() returns with no error but didn't fill struct sockaddr
correctly against PF_LOCAL. It seems that the test always fails then
sockaddr was not filled. So, I added else clause for workaround.
I doubt if it is right fix. However, it is better than nothing. I
found that NetBSD has same potential problem. But, fortunately,
NetBSD has equivalent else clause.
