Ah, quite right, blech.  I had forgotten about OPEN_MAX, which does
make it possible to detect a delayed allocation.

(Obviously that could also [and maybe should] be dealt with by
remembering how many file descriptors we have promised but not
allocated.  But you're quite right that *that* much hair would be a
mistake to deal with now.)
