Dear Maintainer,
We are using nginx-extras (wheezy, {squeeze,wheezy}-backports) and have noticed
that on reload there are unix socket FD leaks (in our environment we reload
regularly).
By recompiling and pruning out the modules used, I was able to drill the
problem down the the nginx-http-push module; not a surprise as it is the only
one that calls socketpair(AF_UNIX).
First thing I did was drop in the latest version (0.712, Debian has 0.692) and
recompile, unfortunately it did not fix anything.
To reproduce the problem, all you have to do is install
nginx-extras and reload:

You should notice that the number of open unix sockets increases; these unix
sockets are what the master process uses to speak to its workers.
Marking this important as the last thing you want to do is run out of FD's :)
I tried digging around to fix it myself but came up empty handed, sorry.
Cheers
