NAK to this patch (but that doesn't affect the other 8 in the series).
In isolation, test-dirent-safer doesn't use fdopendir; but with
dirent-safer and fdopendir used at the same time, then xalloc is still
being pulled in.  That is, commit 2392b18 dropped xalloc-die for openat,
but fdopendir is using more than openat and still dragging in xalloc
through some other path.

[Hmm, './gnulib-tool --test openat' excludes xalloc-die, but
'./gnulib-tool --test --with-tests openat' pulls it in - I'm still
investigating...]
