It's still buggy.  You need something like this:

int open_safer(const char *name, int flags, int mode)
{
  int opened_fd[3] = {0, 0, 0};
  int fd, i, errno_saved;
  while (1) {
    fd = open(name, flags | O_CLOEXEC, mode);
    if (fd < 0 || fd > 2) {
      break;
    }
    opened_fd[fd] = 1;
  }
  for (int i = 0; i <= 2; ++i) {
    if (opened_fd[i]) {
      errno_saved = errno;
      close(i);
      errno = errno_saved;
    }
  }
  return fd;
}

It's untested, so it's probably still buggy.

(O_CLOEXEC should have been a thread attribute, like the base path in
the *_at functions. *sigh*)
