Scratch that. Here is a (hopefully) more complete fix:

Does it work for you?

Oops. In that case, scratch some of my previous reply too. I'll give it a try, but I have to say that I still like my patch more. It makes it clear that the child only gets descriptors 0, 1, and 2, and it's simpler. Your patch is more precise about what it closes, but that means that if, say, telnetd itself inherited a descriptor from its invoker, or if, say, somebody adds another open descriptor (say for a log file)
to telnetd, you'd have to take care to close that one in the child too.

But maybe I should have used sysconf(_SC_OPEN_MAX) instead of getdtablesize().
The former is presumably more portable than the latter.
