There must be an issue already because someone "fixed" the problem for
later asterisk releases. The thing is I don't think the "fix" makes
sense for linux which I thought was the preferred platform for asterisk.
The linuxy way to close open descriptors before exec'ing a script would
be to set the "close on exec" whenever a file is opened or a socket is
created. As for the review board, I simply fixed the stuff that affected
the applications that I support so the codes not finished and not ready
for review.
