I think all are in agreement at this point that closing the

Yeah, I've read through the discussion now, and I think I agree.
I dislike the idea of looping over an unknown number of file
descriptors, but it is both the safest and least disruptive
strategy.
As a fallback to standard unix behavior, we can have a Config
option that says "don't do the close thing".
Config.dontDoTheCloseThing it is. ;)
