Hija,
 this program crashes SEGV on stable/13 after 135962 iterations,
but continues to run on 12.3.
My stable/13 is still at 22ba2970766 - if You happen to be on a
newer level, then please just try this out.
------------------------------------------------------
#include <unistd.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <stdio.h>
main() {
    char buf[] = "12345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890";
    int fd = open("/dev/null", O_RDONLY);
    int i = 0;
    close(1);
    dup2(fd, 1);
    close(fd);
    while(1) {
      fputs(buf, stdout);
      fflush(stdout);
      i++;
      fprintf(stderr, "%d\n", i);
    }
}
------------------------------------------------------
I know that the code is bogus, but this is exactly what one of our
ports does (and why it started to crash after upgrading to stable/13).
And I think it should not SEGV, anyway.
