59          are 0..N-1.  It can be obtained through a loop as follows:

67          On Windows XP, the result is 2048.
68          The drawback of this loop is that it allocates memory for a libc
69          internal array that is never freed.
70 
71          The number N can also be obtained as the upper bound for
72          _getmaxstdio ().  _getmaxstdio () returns the maximum number of open
73          FILE objects.  The sanity check in _setmaxstdio reveals the maximum
74          number of file descriptors.  This too allocates memory, but it is
75          freed when we call _setmaxstdio with the original value.  */
