Not even C can't serialze sockets, at least not in user space and not to shared memory. Though some Unix systems (those that support STREAMS -- probably most non-BSD-based ones) will let you tell the operating system to stream an open file descriptor over a socket or pipe using ioctl() with the I_SENDFD and I_RECVFD.
