Not really, because things like
	packedFD="0x0e00000073c6e946"
converted to a long long breaks sendfdport etc.
Truncating to 4 bytes seems to work:
patch at the end of twext.python.sendfd.recvfd:
---
    unpackedFD = 0
    int_size = calcsize("i")
    log.debug(str('recvfd: socketfd=%d, data="%s", flags=0x%s, cmsg_level=0x%s, cmsg_type=0x%s, packedFD="0x%s"'
        % (socketfd, data, hex(long(flags)), hex(long(cmsg_level)), hex(long(cmsg_type)), packedFD.encode('hex_codec'))))
    if len(packedFD) != int_size:
        err_msg = str("recvfd: packedFD [%d] not %d bytes long" % (len(packedFD),int_size))
        log.warn(err_msg)
        if len(packedFD) > int_size:
            [unpackedFD] = unpack("i", packedFD[0:int_size])
            log.warn('recvfd: Truncating packedFD to %d bytes: %d.' % (int_size, unpackedFD))
        else:
            raise ValueError(err_msg)
    else:
        [unpackedFD] = unpack("i", packedFD)
    return (unpackedFD, data)

At least this shows to me, that shipping FDs via AF_UNIX sockets works.
To find the real bug, I need advice.
