Kernel or userland bug: file descript passing in Postfix

[Matthias Scheler <tron%zhadum.org.uk@localhost>]

        Hello,

it seems that support for "milters" is currently broken in Postfix under at
least NetBSD/amd64 5.0_RC2. "postfix/cleanup" dies with this error message
like this one:

        warning: cannot receive milters via service cleanup socket socket

After a lot of debugging and by comparing with a demo program kindly
provided by Michael van Elst I came up with the attached patch for
Postfix which seems to fix the problem.

Is this really a bug in Postfix (in which I case I will commit the patch)
or is it a kernel bug?

        Kind regards
