No, it's using TCP. Output of sockstat when it's working:
Rumko    ncmpc      1275  3  tcp4   127.0.0.1:1068        127.0.0.1:6600
Rumko    mpd        900   3  tcp4   127.0.0.1:6600        127.0.0.1:1068
Rumko    mpd        900   4  tcp4   *:6600                *:*

Please do not CC me, since I already receive everything from these MLs.
