I'd say that the data loss (~1%) when I tried to use nc with UNIX sockets
(on both ends) is much more troublesome than your changes.
Even when I used lockf to synchronize socket access this loss occured
and I have fallen back to using files for messaging in my scripts.

Back then I thought I must have done something wrong, but I cannot think
of anything.

Obviously an option with disadvantages.
