This is a highly theoretical use-case, isn't it?
If you think POSIX should not specify things the way it does, please

The POSIX "shall fail" requirem
The gnulib configure test in m4/posix_spawn.m4, when run on Alpine Linux 3.7,
determines that the posix_spawn_file_actions_add* functions do not fail as
expected for an out-of-range file descriptor.
