Issue #14907 has been updated by nobu (Nobuyoshi Nakada).


```diff
+            r.close_on_exec = true
+            r.close_on_exec = true
```

The second is `w`?

io.c: do not close inherited FDs by default

While I fully agree Ruby should create FDs with close-on-exec by
default (as it has since 2.0.0); I don't believe Ruby should be
arbitrarily closing file descriptors it does not know about.

The following is an example (using mwrap[1]) where closing
inherited FDs is harmful.

    MWRAP=dump_fd:99 mwrap make -j4 exam 99>>mwrap.out

I only found one minor regression from this change in
test/lib/test/unit.rb as IO.new does not set close-on-exec
when using jobserver FDs from make.  A possible change
is to make IO.new set FD_CLOEXEC by default.
