too has got stuck in sendmsg/recvmsg when did linux64 ltp tests, and at 
first sight here not a simple problem. Linux and fbsd at x86-64 have 
different definitions of msghdr & cmsghdr struct. it's not problem to 
convert msghdr :) with cmsghdr more difficult.
see unp_internalize() at sys/kern/uipc_usrreq.c
i think about it now.

thnx!
