Basically, you can define a map type that uses a TCP or UNIX-domain
socket to talk to a daemon on the other end.  This lets you do all
kinds of cool things like:

- LDAP routing, with MIMEDefang maintaining a persistent connection to the
  LDAP server.

- Maps that do complicated processing that can best be expressed in Perl.
