 Thank you for the review! I really appreciate it!

 Sure, I made it return 0;

 I changed '''void tor_addr_make_af_unix()''' to '''static
 tor_addr_make_af_unix()''' and removed the reference to it in
 '''address.h'''.

 OK.

 OK.

 OK.

 I figured that we will want to change the logic internally as well later -
 for example - this is where we might check the user/group restrictions.
 That was part of the grounding for it in later revisions - does it make
 sense to keep it around with this in mind?

 I think it is a TCP stream that we attach but I see that it isn't really
 TCP, of course.

 I have removed that - it was a mistake to include it. Good catch!

 I didn't combine them because I expect that this branch of code may change
 later and I wanted it to be treated totally separate.

 OK.

 OK.

 OK.

 and test.

 OK.
