Any reason why we can't make the behavior of PR_Open() consistent on both platforms by getting PR_Open to make the file descriptor close-on-exec?
(It does get a little tricky with threads: it would be best if one thread didn't exec while another is between open and fcntl, but isn't NSPR the best place to deal with this?)
