the value returned by $fs is always with proto, afaik. When you assign 
something to it is just to identify the listening socket, i.e., the 
given string value is parsed and used to search in the list of local 
listen sockets and if something matching is found, then $fs is linked to 
that socket structure.

I think the description is good in regard to its value, maybe would be 
good to add notes about assignment value.

Cheers,
Daniel
