There should be something about socket migration in zmq(7). Something 
like: A socket can be migrated from one thread to another. When doing 
so, user is responsible for executing full memory barrier. CAUTION: Do 
not use this functionality unless you know exactly what you are doing.

It's backwards compatible and has no direct relationship to ZMQ_FD or 
ZMQ_EVENTS.

Would you like to provide a documentation patch?

Martin
