FIFO server vs. unix socket server
----------------------------------
Under heavy load, especially when many calls are initiated at once, the fifo
buffer can be too small. Therefore unix sockets can be used to write a request 
from ser to sems. Unix sockets only work in cvs version of both ser and sems.

So, use only unix_sockets between SEMS && SER.
