#
# We use a background thread for sharing fds on Unix, and for sharing sockets on
# Windows.
#
# A client which wants to pickle a resource registers it with the resource
# sharer and gets an identifier in return.  The unpickling process will connect
# to the resource sharer, sends the identifier and its pid, and then receives
# the resource.
