My guess is that this code is opening fd 3 (stdout is fd 1, stderr is fd

Well I think lighttpd should close all open fds,
Why? Doesn't POSIX or another standard indicate who should close them?
Not leaking them in the first place would be even more secure I think.

security reasons anyway and I think I've seen this in some daemon (maybe
ssh, I'm not sure).
That's true, but how does the daemon know which fds are open and which
are not and which ones should be closed?
