No, as I wrote in my mail; wanted to get some comment first, if this
is useful at all. I'm no autoconf guru, so there may be a better
way (help wanted!), but here it goes as a quick hack:
AC_EGREP_CPP(yes,
#include <sys/socket.h>
#ifdef SO_PEERCRED
yes
#endif
],
AC_DEFINE(HAVE_SO_PEERCRED),
[])
and a corresponding entry to config.h.in:
/* Define if you have SO_PEERCRED */
#undef HAVE_SO_PEERCRED
I'll make a new patch if you prefer.

simply specify "ident", like the following:
local all ident sameuser

No, this would change semantics of an existing keyword. I think it is
quite logical to use "ident" as a keyword for both local and remote
connections.
