I'm guessing that the original was "stdin", then someone had the same problem you had and expanded the API without breaking backwards.
Entirely possible. I've deleted the branch for this feature, since it's not needed (although at some point, I might make a pure-Pike helper function that does the proper verification; my app currently short-cuts things a bit, since it never needs more than one socket), and made a small docs tweak to link "stdin" mode with listen_fd.
Thanks for the info, Mirar and Arne! This is where this mailing list is awesome :)
