Description:

$ bash -c 'echo "${ exec 4> /dev/null && echo OK; }"; ls -dog "/proc/$$/fd/4"'
OK
l-wx------ 1 64 Jan 23 09:22 /proc/19083/fd/4 -> /dev/null

fine, but when 4 is the first free fd like after:

$ exec 3>&1
$ bash -c 'echo "${ exec 4> /dev/null && echo OK; }"; ls -dog "/proc/$$/fd/4"'

ls: cannot access '/proc/19106/fd/4': No such file or directory

Thanks for the report. It's an easy fix.
