Still, I guess that might not matter too much since apart from plperl we
only use perl for building / testing.
However, is it possible to trust the out-of-core perl modules posted
on CPAN, assuming that these will never produce warnings? I've never
seen any issues with IPC::Run in these last years, so perhaps that's
OK in the long-run.
If we do find any such issues then warnings can be turned off locally.
We already do that in several places.
Regarding the dangers mentioned, I guess we can undo it if it proves a
nuisance.
Yeah. I am wondering what the buildfarm would say with this change.
+1 to getting rid if the unnecessary call to getprotobyname().
Looking around here..

Hmm. Are you sure that this is OK even in the case where the TAP
tests run on Windows without unix-domain socket support? The CI runs
on Windows, but always with unix domain sockets around as far as I
know.
The socket call in question is for a PF_INET socket, so this has nothing
at all to do with unix domain sockets. See the man page for socket() (2)
for an explanation of why 0 is ok in this case. (There's only one
protocol that matches the rest of the parameters).
