After digging for hours why something like FOO_PASS_FD=3 exec /usr/pkg/bin/foo 3</path/to/pass worked on -6, but not on -8, I found out that redir.c:1.38 introduced setting close-on-exec for redirections, 1.40 tried to fix it, but probably not for the command being exec'ed being exec. At least 1.55 made it conditional on !posix, so I have a workaround.
