Comment (by arma):

 I think one question we need to answer is: which string would we like in
 the address field?

 The first string we write is "AF_UNIX". The second string we write is
 "/home/arma/.tor/socks", i.e. the file system path for the sockssocket.

 I think the second one is a little bit more useful, since if we have
 multiple sockssockets, then conn->address will tell us which one caused
 the stream?
