According to 
http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/manual/html_node/Address-Formats.html

AF_UNIX
This is a synonym for AF_LOCAL. Although AF_LOCAL is mandated by POSIX.1g, 
AF_UNIX is portable to more systems. AF_UNIX was the traditional name stemming 
from BSD, so even most POSIX systems support it. It is also the name of choice 
in the Unix98 specification. (The same is true for PF_UNIX vs. PF_LOCAL).
