Will that work on W2K, given the problems with _get_dev_info there?

In any case, this will solve the case where a parent program closes
one of the standard streams, but not a more general problem with
closing a file handle that belongs to a FILE object.

But if it's safe for W2K, then it might be worthwhile to put this into
the 2.03 refresh.
