The Solaris manpage sort of seems to indirectly suggest that
it might conceivabley be possible:
EMSGSIZE The socket requires that message be sent atomi-
cally, and the message was too long.
Which suggests that some types of socket may not require the
message to be sent atomically. (TCP/IP, for example.)
