Since this patch overwrites the previous SO_PEERCRED patch I assume you
want it to work on Linux, too.  On Linux SCM_CREDS is called
SCM_CREDENTIALS.  There's no sys/ucred.h (use sys/socket.h instead), and
there's no fc_uid, though I don't know what that does.  The invocation
changes to StrNCpy look suspicious; see the comment at StrNCpy in c.h.  In
one place you include errno.h twice.
