include/filecntl.h in bash-4.1 has following:
#define SET_CLOSE_ON_EXEC(fd) (fcntl ((fd), F_SETFD, FD_CLOEXEC))
Is that really the correct/intended usage of F_SETFD ?
If kernel ever adds a new flag to the fd, this would end up clearing the
other new flag right ?
Shouldn't bash use F_GETFD to get the current flags and set/clear just
the FD_CLOEXEC bit ?
