I guess it would close, but garbage collection didn't notice yet that
all references have been dropped.
BTW, it's not necessarily semiclosed: you are throwing away the
contents and it will be open or semiclosed dependent on how much is
read by readFile before returning (perhaps nothing and it's thus open).
If it was semiclosed, the physical handle could be closed immediately.
