Salut Samuel; is there any more information or kernel documentation on
the "race in MSG_PEEK"?

I'm aware that MSG_PEEK isn't particularly portable, and I plan to
replace this some day - but until then, is there something that requires
immediate action around MSG_PEEK?

Pointers would suffice.

Thanks in advance.

Best
Matthias
