You're not opening STDOUT to anything. And you closed STDERR so the
die message can't go anywhere. In fact, it goes into an infinite loop.
No it doesn't, there is no loop there.
It goes into an infinite loop on my machine. I suggest you try it
before you make such blanket statements.
Never close STDERR; just open it to the null device:
open STDERR, '>', '/dev/null';
And don't add the traditional die; if it fails, there's nowhere to
report the failure.

Programming is as much about organization and communication
as it is about coding.
Regardless of how small the crowd is, there is always one in
it who has to find out the hard way that the laws of physics
applies to them too.
