+Subject: [PATCH] Select TCP when lack of SYSV IPC
+
+Update to add a configure test to build and install the TCP IPC version
+when detecting SYSV IPC MsgQ support isn't available.
+
+The issue was initially discovered on Windows Services for Linux
+(WSL1.0). WSL does have some SysV IPC, but no message Q's, which is
+required by fakeroot/faked by default.
+
+Fixes:
+https://github.com/Microsoft/WSL/issues/2465
