A while ago, I tested pipe() for EMFILE failures [1]. Well, I repeated
those tests for socketpair() [2], and cygwin is once again the odd man out.

$ ./foo
after fd 3199, open failed with errno 24 Too many open files
try 1, socketpair returned -1 errno 24 Too many open files, fds -2 -3
try 2, socketpair returned -1 errno 24 Too many open files, fds -2 -3
try 3, socketpair returned -1 errno 24 Too many open files, fds -2 -3
But on Linux, try 3 succeeds. Something in cygwin is not quite right on
try 3 - the program explicitly freed two fd slots (0 and 3199), so it
should have plenty of room to create the socketpair without hitting EMFILE.
Disclaimer: I tested on 1.7.9 rather than the latest snapshot; maybe the
pipe() fix in the meantime also fixed socketpair()?

The socketpair function forgot to free the descriptor slot of the first
socket if there was no room left for the second socket. Fixed in CVS.
Thanks,
