I don't suppose that you have any statistics showing that the
for (i = 3; i < getdtablesize(); i++) close(i);
approach would be too slow?

I'm not really keen on the name either - but I couldn't think of
anything better. `closeall' isn't really descriptive since it doesn't
close all the FDs. `closefdset' suggests (to me, anyway) the opposite
behaviour: ie closing the FDs specified in the passed fd_set, instead
of closing everything else.
