Hmm. Matching e.g. "(0|STDIN_FILENO)" instead of "0" is harder, of
course, but not much.
Shouldn't we use these macros more to reduce the number of magic values?
The code is slightly easier to read before this patch because it doesn't
require the reader to know the meaning of these numbers.
Reducing the constants to their numerical values is easy to automate in
general; the opposite direction is harder. Coccinelle can help us take
such a step with a semantic patch like this:
