Yes, it's terribly complicated, and this is just the sort of scenario
for which Unix-domain sockets were designed.  I'd say use Unix domain
sockets on Unix and Mac, and IP sockets with loopback on Windows, unless
there's an implementation of Unix domain sockets for Windows.
In any case, we only care about the socket type when it is created and
bound or connected.  I.E., the socket(), bind(), and connect() calls.
So most of the time nobody needs to care whether it is an IP socket or a
Unix domain socket.
