Subject:	fdopen() on sockets?

Message-ID:	<199806221510.RAA13968.cygnus.gnu-win32@dalim.dalim.de>

I recently installed a vanilla b19.1 and am re-porting a bunch of code
from b18.

I have some library code that takes sockets that turns sockets into
FILE *'s so that calling code doesn't need to worry if it is dealing
with a socket or a regular file. fdopen() is failing on sockets with
EBADF. Is there a workaround?

Test case appended. Oh, and as a bonus question, I normally rig
things so that detected program errors print a message and send a
SIGINT to the process. (See the function die() below.) When running
under gdb, this normally returns control to gdb with all the stack
ready for examination. The B19 behavior is for the program to exit.
