so trivial to confuse that it's not even funny; pass an SCM_RIGHTS

So, what would be a good way to let them see the file descriptors created by
these two syscalls? The can get the info for socket, open, accept, ... but
these two are difficult to get at the information.
This might be better as an aux record instead of part of the syscall record
where the field is meaningless for 99.99% of the syscalls.
