It's still there. It's a hold-over from 2.x where opened files were indeed
usable for exec(). It was a rarely-used feature that turned out to be hard
to implement given the continued reliance of the parser on <stdio.h> while
the I/O system no longer uses that, so it was dropped with very little
protests.

Please do fix it!
