New Comment:
It seams to work if the file descriptor is a pipe, but it fails on
network sockets.
Example:
testfd.php:
#!/usr/local/bin/php -q
<?php
echo `ls -l /dev/fd/`;
$stdin = fopen('/dev/fd/0', 'r');
$stdout = fopen('/dev/fd/1', 'w');
?>
Server:
tcpserver 127.0.0.1 8000 ./testfd.php
Client:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ nc localhost 8000

If we run the script without tcpserver we get this:

Notice the difference, also notice that /dev/fd is a symlink to
/proc/self/fd:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ls -l /dev/fd
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 2001-12-21 18:29 /dev/fd ->
/proc/self/fd
This is on Debian unstable, Linux 2.4.21. I noticed this when i moved a
script from FreeBSD 4.8 to Linux.

Why does fopen("/dev/fd/x", "r") fail ?

Description:
------------
On some operating systems (BSD?) it is possible to open a arbitrary
file descriptor with fopen like this:
fopen("/dev/fd/<fd>", "r");
But on at least Linux this fails. So here is patch that makes it
possible to open fd:s by useing fopen("php://<fd>", "r").
in ext/standard/php_fopen_wrapper.c:php_stream_url_wrap_php add two
lines:
} else if (!strcasecmp(path, "stderr")) {
fd = STDERR_FILENO;
+} else
+ fd = atoi(path);
Maybe some checks are needed.
