Looks like the fd is allocated too late.
Thanks for the report and especially for the STC. It is during
fdtable extension that the limit is checked; by then NtCreateFile()
has already been called successfully. We need to consider a fix that
avoids needlessly creating a file that can't be operated on anyway.
You're welcome. I will add an enhanced version of the STC to the
cygwin-apps/stc repo. Problem was detected by 'stress-ng --open ...'
with stress-ng 0.21.01-1.
