No.  With DJGPP v1.x, it was possible because the extender was running
the DJGPP program, so it was possible to use the DOS file handle
inheritance to provide this feature.  In v2.x, the "extender" is just
a DPMI server, and the program runs independently of it.  Therefore,
file handles are not (and can not) be inherited.
