How do you pass file descriptors over IPC?

The BSD IPC documentation makes mention of the possibility of passing
file descriptors between processes using IPC.

How is this done?  (Is this a dumb question?)
- or -
Which BSD programs (if any) do this?  I could then perhaps grab the
source from uunet and examine it.
