Yes, I missed a "had" after "has". 2.1 still has it somewhere deep inside the code I didn't manage to root out for Debian, for example. That said, just moving off 0,1,2 is not difficult. But it would not help at all with bug #2422 (it is a problem with statically allocated fds, not with them being 0, 1 and 2). The ideal fix would be to have them be dynamic. -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them. One disk to bring them all and in the darkness grind them.
