	 * if the file server dies, we don't have a ref to the 9P server
	 * half of the pipe.  Then killing the other procs will drop
	 * all the refs on the 9P server half, and the mount will fail.
	 * Otherwise the mount hangs forever.
	 *
	 * Libthread in general and acme win in particular make
	 * it hard to make this fd bookkeeping work out properly,
	 * so leaveinfdopen is a flag that win sets to opt out of this
	 * safety net.
