Actually, according to the code, the cached handle gets updated on every
start of an I/O watcher that has it's fd updated.
Are you sure you stop/set/start the watcher? (See "The special problem of
disappearing file descriptors").
If you do, can you make a small testcase the illustrates the problem? I
can't see how it can not update the cached fd (there might be a problem
with updating it, but that doesn't seem to be what you see).

It should just work, and if it doesn't, it needs to be made to work.
