I still see the handle leak in the expect/dejagnu testcase that I posted
earlier.  And in fact now it's worse as ^C won't kill the testcase; it
just hangs after printing this:

...
PASS: gcc.c-torture/compile/20000105-1.c (test for excess errors)
got a INT signal, interrupted by user 

                === gcc Summary ===

# of expected passes            377

If I manually kill the child expect.exe process then it un-hangs and
prints the following:

parent: sync byte write: broken pipe

(This is run from rxvt in case it matters.)
