Comment:

 Thanks for spotting this.

 We shouldn't hard code an OS name check for this.  A quick search suggest
 that there are other platforms which need an extra library for
 socketpair().

 Richard's suggestion looks plausible.  I have an account on a Solaris box,
 so I can test that.

 Both this and the original patch will needlessly link other Omega binaries
 with -lxnet, but that's perhaps not worth the effort to avoid.

 Marking for 1.1.3 as we'll fix it there first, then backport.
