Assigned to Barry because he's working this week <wink>.

Digging thru the mass of old FCNTL.py files in the Lib/plat-
xxx/ Attics, it looks to me like the current fcntlmodule is 
missing oodles of symbols that used to be available, some 
that were defined on most platforms (like FD_CLOEXEC), and 
many platform-unique.  We should probably try the union of 
all of them in fcntlmodule.c.

Per, sorry, looks like you'll have to wait for 2.2.1 
(assuming a bugfix release manager volunteers to produce 
one).  For 2.3, how about trying one of the beta releases 
before it's too late?  Thousands of people downloaded the 
2.2 betas, but I'm afraid nobody noticed the FD_CLOEXEC 
disappearance.
