+ <body>
+ <p>If threads or signal handlers call <tt>fork()</tt> and
+ <tt>exec()</tt>, file descriptors may be passed undesirably to
+ child processes, which may lead to hangs (if a pipe is not
+ closed), exceeding the file descriptor limit and security
+ problems (if the child process has lower privilege). One
+ solution is various new APIs that set the "close-on-exec" flag
+ atomically with allocating a file descriptor. Some existing
+ software will use the new features if present or will even
+ refuse to compile without them.</p>
+
+ <p>With <tt>mkostemp()</tt>, <tt>dup3()</tt>, and a change to
+ modes of <tt>fopen()</tt> and <tt>freopen()</tt>, everything
+ proposed in Austin Group issue #411 has now been implemented.
+ For all POSIX-specified functions that allocate file
+ descriptors, it is possible to request that the new descriptor
+ be set close-on-exec atomically.</p>
+
+ <p>Additionally, many file descriptors used internally by
+ <tt>libc</tt> and <tt>libutil</tt> now have the close-on-exec bit
+ set.</p>
