   * This abstract class serves as the parent class for socket implementations.
   * The implementation class serves an intermediary to native routines that
   * perform system specific socket operations.
   * <p>
   * A default implementation is provided by the system, but this can be
   * changed via installing a <code>SocketImplFactory</code> (through a call 
   * to the static method <code>Socket.setSocketImplFactory</code>).  A 
   * subclass of <code>Socket</code> can also pass in a <code>SocketImpl</code>
   * to the <code>Socket(SocketImpl)</code> constructor to use an 
   * implementation different from the system default without installing
   * a factory.
