So this is the culprit?

How exactly do you trigger this? I thought download code used GIO or
GnomeVFS now to spawn processes.

Is there any valid case for wanting to keep the file descriptors open
after a fork? I was thinking that, in that function ForkAndExec(), if
attr is null then I close the fds. karl, thoughts?
