Humn... Do we really want to support kernels older than 2.6.23?

Adding a workaround like this IMO will just hide bugs because we rely
on O_CLOEXEC semantics. Doing nothing is not really what we want.
Maybe if ancient downstream distros want the workaround they can
define O_CLOEXEC by themselves during build... passing it in CFLAGS
should work
