This occurs on Linux as well, just with a few less entries in
fd (42 rather than 560).  These descriptors are apparently
created by bash for some reason I don't know, and our bash seems
to create some more descriptors than the newler bash on Linux.

Eric, do you happen to know what bash  is doing here?
