.SH DESCRIPTION
-Enables the use of an abstract Unix domain socket instead of establishing a TCP
-connection to a host. The parameter should be a char * to a null-terminated string
-holding the path of the socket. The path will be set to \fIpath\fP prefixed by a
-NULL byte (this is the convention for abstract sockets, however it should be stressed
-that the path passed to this function should not contain a leading NULL).

-On non-supporting platforms, the abstract address will be interpreted as an empty

-the same storage and therefore only one of them can be set per handle.
