Re: [PATCH v2 properly indented] fix start_command() bug when stdin is closed

[Paolo Bonzini <bonzini@gnu.org>]

Hannes already answered everything, but now that I think more about it I
would actually consider putting it in main, just in case an important
file ends up in file descriptor = 2 and is corrupted by a call to die().
 Just in case, this program shows that stderr always point to fd 2 even
if it is closed upon launch:

  #include <stdio.h>
  #include <fcntl.h>

  int main()
  {
    int fd = open ("/dev/tty", O_WRONLY);
    FILE *fp;
    fp = fdopen (fd, "w");
    fprintf (fp, "file descriptor %d\n", fd);
    fflush (fp);
    fprintf (stderr, "writing on stderr now\n");
  }

  bonzinip$ ./a.out 2<&-
  file descriptor 2
  writing on stderr now
  bonzinip$

Patch coming in a moment.
