Looks like RX_* values were previously used only to form the `flags'
argument of do_redirections() and related functions, comprising:
RX_ACTIVE RX_UNDOABLE RX_CLEXEC
Separately, the REDIRECTION struct has a `flags' member holding O_*
flags passed to open(). But the following (other) RX_* values are also
getting stored in the `flags' member of REDIRECTION structs:
RX_INTERNAL RX_USER RX_SAVCLEXEC RX_SAVEFD RX_EXPANDED
So as Oğuz notes, the issue here is observed when an RX_* value from
the above list has the same value as an O_* flag.
Perhaps it would make sense to change the latter set of RX_* values
into new REDIR_* values, which make up the `rflags' REDIRECTION member.
