Upgrading Unrealircd v5 to v6 Could not listen on UNIX domain socket

I've updated unrealircd from v5 to v6.0.2, using the upgrade guide from unrealircd's docs, but I keep getting this error when trying to start the service:

Apr 11 11:21:51 home unrealircd[49897]: [info] Testing IRCd configuration..
Apr 11 11:21:51 home unrealircd[49897]: [info] Configuration loaded
Apr 11 11:21:51 home unrealircd[49897]: [info] Configuration test passed OK
Apr 11 11:21:51 home unrealircd[49897]: [info] UnrealIRCd is now listening on the following addresses/ports:
Apr 11 11:21:51 home unrealircd[49897]: [info] IPv4: 192.168.50.2:6697(TLS)
Apr 11 11:21:51 home unrealircd[49897]: [info] IPv6: <none>
Apr 11 11:21:51 home unrealircd[49897]: [fatal] Could not listen on UNIX domain socket /build/unrealircd/data/unrealircd.ctl: No such file or directory
Apr 11 11:21:51 home systemd[1]: unrealircd.service: Control process exited, code=exited, status=255/EXCEPTION
Apr 11 11:21:51 home systemd[1]: unrealircd.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'.
Apr 11 11:21:51 home systemd[1]: Failed to start IRC daemon.

The only thing I can see in the docs about using unix sockets are with "file" statements in a listen block. But my sole listen block is this:

/* Standard IRC SSL/TLS port 6697 */
listen {
     ip *;
     port 6697;
     options { tls; }
}

Searching for references to that supposed unix socket file, I don't see anything from unrealircd's config

root@home:/etc/unrealircd > grep -r unrealircd.ctl *

root@home:/etc/ > grep -r unrealircd.ctl *

Produces no hits.

Awesome -- thanks! How do I apply that PKGBUILD diff to a binary (non-AUR) package, though?
