   |  Will probably work. I can't test now, unfortunately.
 
 That is more or less what I did (had done before I sent the PR) - it
 compiles and runs OK, but is not really the correct solution.
 
 No correct program ever gets EBADF in a situation like that, so checking
 for it is really just wasting time (may as well check for EFAULT as well,
 that is just as likely...).  What EBADFD really is supposed to mean, and
 why it could actually occur are something only linux people understand I
 assume.
