Also, the MoreIsBetter samples include MoreSecurity which helps you
write helper tools (I think it depends on MoreUNIX and MoreCFQ). In
this mode, you pass commands and data back and forth using
CFDictionary. And one of the supported keys let's you pass... file
descriptors! I don't know, however, if this works around the bug Dave
Keck linked to (but it shouldn't be too hard to modify the code).
