Yeah, I'm still on 2.7, and am aware of PEP 446. Note that many of the file
descriptors will not have been created by my Python code. They will have
been created by underlying C/C++ libraries, so I can't guarantee which
flags were set on file open.

I'm going to continue to pursue solutions which won't require a restart for
now, but would like to have a sane restart option in my back pocket should
it become necessary.

Thx,

Skip
