fd is deliberately being made stdin (I did not look at the code to see
where that comes from, but I can only assume that it comes from somewhere).
fd is also made to be fd 3.
If it is good enough to be stdin, it is good enough to be 3 as well,
if there is (or once was) some reason this is important.
