I can neither find recvfd in my man pages nor in my header files in
/usr/include on Linux (Ubuntu 8.04 i686). I assume recvfd and sendfd
aren't syscalls but the proposed names for the functions.

Yes (and no). The system call is sendmsg, with a cmsg_type of
SCM_RIGHTS. I don't think there is a plan to add library functions
with that name.

There is at least a patch: http://bugs.python.org/issue1194378
