Hmm. If it isn't there, then you have two options.
rewrite system.c to use pipe(2) instead of socketpair. or..
make system.c a null function, and don't the the 'rsystem' client.

socketpair() is a system call (on most machines anyway). It returns
two sockets that are connected. The socket are for all intents and
purposes, bi-directional pipes.
If it isn't in the library, it looks like you will have to re-write to
get around it.
