VMCI transport allows fast communication between the Host
and a virtual machine, between virtual machines on the same host,
and within a virtual machine (like IPC).
It requires VMware to be installed on the host and Guest Additions
to be installed on a guest.
Of course people still "can" distributed the sources under the
LGPLv3. However we provide COPYING.LESSER with additional grants.
Solution: specify these grants in the header of each source file.
As TIPC transport for 0MQ will only work on post 3.8
Linux kernels where nonblocking connect was added,
we add AC_RUN test to check for this functionality.
Should the test fail, tipc is excluded from build/test.

A ZeroMQ application can opt for TIPC based sockets
using the TIPC port name format:
zmq_bind(sb, "tipc://{type,lower,upper}");
zmq_connect(sc, "tipc://{type,inst}");
'type' is the service ID, and 'lower/upper' can be
used for service partitioning or basic load
balancing.
ZeroMQ TIPC transport requires a kernel >= 3.8
(nonblocking connect support for TIPC).

Copyrights had become ads for Sustrik's corporate sponsors, going against the original
agreement to share copyrights with the community (that agreement was: one line stating
iMatix copyright + one reference to AUTHORS file). The proliferation of corporate ads
is also unfair to the many individual authors. I've removed ALL corporate title from
the source files so the copyright statements can now be centralized in AUTHORS and
source files can be properly updated on an annual basis.
This allows us to actually report an error to the caller on resolve
failure, rather than asserting later on in the io thread.
