    But gnulib has to port to C99, and C99 requires that every function be
    explicitly declared, even functions that return 'int'.

How annoying of them.

Well, if it uses a simple functional interface,
it would be ok if it declares the functions.

      (It would save me a bit of time if
    you told me Emacs's mechanism for close-on-exec.)

See close_process_descs.
