That's actually not how things works. O_CLOEXEC is silently ignored by
old kernels. (The calls with SOCK_CLOEXEC fail with EINVAL while the
calls with O_CLOEXEC silently succeed) You need to set
FD_CLOEXEC unconditionally to cover all cases:

fd = open(fn, fmode
#ifdef O_CLOEXEC
          |O_CLOEXEC
#endif
);
fcntl(fd, F_SETFD, FD_CLOEXEC);
