I was using recvmsg() on a pipe in Panther. Tiger tells me that a

The advice I got (thanks to all who replied) was: either use a normal
read() with a pipe or use real sockets with recvmsg().
Well, kind of obvious (I had hoped for some Tiger magic to turn a
pipe into a socket).
:-)
I guess I will have to use sockets, but I do not know how to create
one, and secondly, how to redirect stdout to the socket.
Maybe a kind soul will have an insight and some mercy.
Just replace your call to pipe() with something like
int pipefds[2];
int ret = socketpair (AF_UNIX, SOCK_STREAM, 0, pipefds);
After which, it's the same as using a pipe.
Wondurful! It now works on Panther and on Tiger.
Thanks a lot.
Gerriet.
