+/* The POSIX standard specifies that if close() fails with EINTR the
+ * file descriptor may or may not be in fact closed. Since another
+ * thread might have already reused the FD if it was in fact closed
+ * either a test of FD to ensure that it's closed nor a second
+ * call to close() may indicate the wrong FD, so the error must be
+ * ignored.
+ *
+ * However, since Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) Apple provdes a hidden
+ * implementation of close that doesn't allow another thread
+ * to cancel the close so it never fails with EINTR.
+ *
+ * The official way to enable this is to set __DARWIN_NON_CANCELABLE
+ * in the build, but that applies to all system calls, not just
+ * close(). Following Chromium's example (see
+ * https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/base/+/refs/heads/main/mac/close_nocancel.cc )
+ * we choose to expose and use the hidden close variant only.
