Actually, I'd rather make the whole file not compile at all at the 
Makefile level when NO_SOCKET_TO_FD is defined.  That way executables 
are smaller.  I started looking into it and decided I don't have time at 
the moment, though.

As for compiling and testing it on UNIX, it is probably sufficient to do 
that only before committing changes to that part of the code.  I'll get 
the nightly testing on Windows up eventually.  :)

I just committed your rsh-client patch as well.  Does this mean you want 
me to wait before committing your other six patches?
