-         are 0..N-1.  It can be obtained through a loop as follows:

-           }
-         On Windows XP, the result is 2048.
-         The drawback of this loop is that it allocates memory for a libc
-         internal array that is never freed.
-
-         The number N can also be obtained as the upper bound for
-         _getmaxstdio ().  _getmaxstdio () returns the maximum number of open
-         FILE objects.  The sanity check in _setmaxstdio reveals the maximum
-         number of file descriptors.  This too allocates memory, but it is
-         freed when we call _setmaxstdio with the original value.  */
