You should be able (but not normally required) to close your file descriptors
in CGI.
But the dup introduced unexpected complexity.
If all that's from the cgi lib you're using, maybe you should put it to the
maintainers of that,
and perhaps try and post somewhere a minimal CGI program that demonstrates your
problem.
