If I understand the documentation at http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/007904975/functions/open.html corectly, open()ing a directory is not explicitly prohibited (in fact, the phrasing of one error value, [EISDIR] The named file is a directory and oflag includes O_WRONLY or O_RDWR. suggests that it is allowed). Besides, the code only uses the file descriptor in a subsequent call to fchdir()... Am I missing something here?
