Thanks!

 Also, the manual pages should remove word "shall"
or replace it with
 something, because we either implement the features or
not.
 
 Also, in the following code :
 + case FAE_CLOSE:
 +		/* Perform a close() */
 +		if (_close(fae->fae_fildes) != 0)
 +			_exit(127);
 +		break;
 
 I think the it should only check errno EBADF, other error
 codes are not failure cases, the file handle is always
freed.
