So regardless of the value of FD_CLOEXEC for action.fd, action.arg will always 
have FD_CLOEXEC not set.

So action.fd != action.arg makes sense to me. action.arg cannot make it past 
the exec if we don't clear the flag.

Same applies if action.fd == action.arg, if action.fd has FD_CLOEXEC set, it 
must be cleared.

So both are doing the same thing, but you need to make a new descriptor in one 
case.

Still wondering what the logic of setting FD_CLOEXEC or not in the first place 
is, and whether you'd want to set it in the process you have just exec'd into.

In other words: is it a problem that the new file descriptor in the new process 
will not have FD_CLOEXEC set? Because I assume someone set this flag for some 
reason in the original process.
