Fix your code? But...

Even per-process, how do you know which fds are free?

Are you suggesting that you should enumerate all the fds currently in use by your program, and then make sure to pick one that you know isn't being used, and hope that another thread doesn't race you to getting it anyway?

Sorry, I think I'm missing an important part of the puzzle somewhere here.

You would presumably use an allocator for this, perhaps one that is part of libc.

That allocator wouldn't allocate the same fd twice without a deallocate and could be made threadsafe so you wouldn't have race issues.

Run FORTRAN???

That's the way that always worked :-)
