I'd suggest considering doing a datagram send for initial rendezvous
and to get SCM_CREDS, but accompany that datagram send with an
SCM_RIGHTS send of one end of a SOCK_STREAM socketpair over which all
further communication would be carried out (or perhaps two fds, one
each way, allowing the user of pipes instead of a socketpair).

This would, it seems to me, give the best of both worlds.
