+/*++
+/* NAME
+/* sane_socketpair 3
+/* SUMMARY
+/* sanitize socketpair() error returns
+/* SYNOPSIS
+/* #include <sane_socketpair.h>
+/*
+/* int sane_socketpair(domain, type, protocol, result)
+/* int domain;
+/* int type;
+/* int protocol;
+/* int *result;
+/* DESCRIPTION
+/* sane_socketpair() implements the socketpair(2) socket call, and
+/* skips over silly error results such as EINTR.
+/* BUGS
+/* Bizarre systems may have other harmless error results. Such
+/* systems encourage programmers to ignore error results, and
+/* penalize programmers who code defensively.
