I was vaguely planning to see if the smallest approach might be for xopen() to 
have a ... as the third argument, the way the real open() does.  Having the 
default value of 777 ever be used by anything is evil and a security hole 
waiting to happen.  Having it be uninitalized random junk off the stack is at 
least more likely to get noticed by somebody.
