--- Comment #1 from Geoffrey Thomas <bugzilla at ldpreload.com> ---
I looked into this with Nelson a bit - it looks like this is the /* XXX
*/ in channel_pre_open in channel.c. That function appears to properly
handle stdin and stdout, but stderr is only select()ed on if stdin and
stdout are open, which seems wrong. I also don't see anything that ever
closes stderr, other than the process exiting.

This might be a client-side thing (client not sending a shutdown for
stderr) but I'm not following the logic of nchan.c  well enough to see
who should be handling stderr.
