Currently in the case of command line arguments punix/unix, on Windows
we create a file, write a TCP port number to connect. This is a security
concern.

This patch adds support for the command line arguments punix/unix trying
to mimic AF_UNIX behind a local named pipe.

If I apply this patch, then the compilation fails on Linux. Also, can you please carefully look at commit cb54a8c57646a1549dcff0c2ad4c2d8b46bc2880 and commit e3f512b07c11de6b297050bb969fd0d8a07f9357 which added these features in the first place. Those commits add a lot more than what this series removes.

[Alin Gabriel Serdean: ] Sorry about the compilation error I will squash the first two commits. Unless I am missing should I just update the comments and man pages as well, or there is a part of the code I missed?
