Yes, you could use pthread_kill, but that would require keeping a list 
of the tids of all the threads that were using the FD, and that really 
just moves the problem elsewhere rather than fixing it.

close(2) as per specified by POSIX works just fine on Solaris, if that 
was the case everywhere then it wouldn't be an issue. And for cases 
where it is necessary to keep the FD assigned because of races, the 
dup2(2) trick works fine as well.
