SYNOPSIS
use strict;
use IPC::Transit;
IPC::Transit::send(qname => 'test', message => { a => 'b' });
#...the same or a different process on the same machine
my $message = IPC::Transit::receive(qname => 'test');
#remote transit
remote-transitd & #run 'outgoing' transitd gateway
IPC::Transit::send(qname => 'test', message => { a => 'b' }, destination => 'some.other.box.com');
#On 'some.other.box.com':
remote-transit-gateway & #run 'incoming' transitd gateway
my $message = IPC::Transit::receive(qname => 'test');

BUGS
Patches, flames, opinions, enhancement ideas are all welcome.
I am not satisfied with not supporting Windows, but it is considered
secondary. I am open to the possibility of adding abstractions for this
kind of support as long as it doesn't greatly affect the primary goals.
