This will still go back through the loop again and try to open another.
I would instead just set vhostfdSize = i (in case there were any
successful opens) and break out of the loop.
And again you'll need to decide what is an error and what gets just a
warning - if someone asks for 3 queues and gets none, that should lead
to continuing without any error or even warning. But if they request 2
and only get one, is that an error, or do we warn and continue? or just
silently continue? (I don't have the answer, I'm just asking the
question :-)
