Issue for discussion.

FileListener is useful to implement graceful-restart server. ex: https://github.com/lestrrat/go-server-starter

I know windows doesn't have a way to pass FDs to external process like UNIX OSs.
But it's not impossible. WSADuplicateSocket can export intormation of file descriptor as WSAPROTOCOL_INFO to specified process. This structure is possible to be written to a file as byte array.

http://msdn.microsoft.com/ja-jp/library/windows/desktop/ms741565(v=vs.85).aspx

How about implementation of os.File.dup, os.FileListener on windows?

This issue might be unfixable because of the architectural differences between Unix-variants and Windows. One good news is that Go 1.12 supports #24331; you may use os.File.SyscallConn instead of net.File{Conn,PacketConn,Listener} functions.
