Absolutely they do not but with these

  ACNT         ALLSPOOL     ALTPRI       AUDIT        BUGCHK       BYPASS
  CMEXEC       CMKRNL       DIAGNOSE     DOWNGRADE    EXQUOTA      GROUP
  GRPNAM       GRPPRV       IMPERSONATE  IMPORT       LOG_IO       MOUNT
  NETMBX       OPER         PFNMAP       PHY_IO       PRMCEB       PRMGBL
  PRMMBX       PSWAPM       READALL      SECURITY     SETPRV       SHARE
  SHMEM        SYSGBL       SYSLCK       SYSNAM       SYSPRV       TMPMBX
  UPGRADE      VOLPRO       WORLD

plus all the facility available to TCPIP$BGDRIVER.EXE why would they?

The example showed a mechanism available to pass established sockets 
between unrelated processes provided IPC is available; can be simple as 
logical name+value, or doorbell lock name+value, etc.
