Yes, that's what the patch solves in the case of a UNIX socket.

Desired? Speak for yourself.

That has nothing to do with the substance of my comment. I'm not concerned with
the max-size.

Great, now model the problem accurately by repeating the same test again, but
without piping the newline into it.

I'm afraid you don't seem to understand how an issue tracker works. Sometimes
people disagree with one another, and we don't restort to stasis of place out
of desperation when it is convenient.
