   This was on a Debian GNU/Linux system.

   On my system, /dev/stdin is a symlink to /dev/fd/0 .  /dev/fd/ is
   a symlink to /proc/self/fd .

   I guess I thought /dev/stdin was fairly portable (across Linux
   distributions, anyway), but to be *fully* portable, use:
   /proc/self/fd/0 as the filename, since that's guaranteed to exist.
