Does anyone know what the call to sanitize_stdfds() is good for? I tried searching the mailing list, but the discussion on the patch that introduced it seems to only discuss how to implement sanitize_stdfds(), not why... I understand that it might be beneficial in the --detach code-path, but how can stdint, stdout or stderr be closed in this code-path? (CC'ed Matthias, who wrote the code)
