Unfortunately DRb via `drbunix://` doesn't support that yet. For instance when I try to do so on local machine, I get this error: ~~~ can't convert DRb::DRbObject to IO (DRb::DRbObject#to_io gives DRb::DRbObject) (TypeError) ~~~ Would you please consider adding support for sending file descriptors via DRb (of course on local machine)?
