I would like to see a more verbose comment, so we don't forget why we
did this. I think my inability to quickly discover the cause of the
previous log write problem is that I didn't document which file
descriptors are kept open on Windows. I suggest for a comment:
/*

Anyway, we can easily adjust the comment post-9.2.0.
Shall I apply the patch now? If so I'll include your comment.
