Interesting...  Oh, crap.  OK, that's easily fixed: in fs/fcntl.c
                err = f_dupfd(arg, filp, FD_CLOEXEC);
should get s/FD_/O_/.  Linus, could you apply the following?

Fix a braino in F_DUPFD_CLOEXEC; f_dupfd() expects flags for
alloc_fd()/get_unused_fd()/etc. and there clone-on-exec if
O_CLOEXEC, not FD_CLOEXEC.
