Handling collision between standard i/o file descriptors and newly created ones

Though unlikely to happen, it may happen that newly created file
descriptor take the value 0 (stdin), 1 (stdout) or 2 (stderr) if one
of the standard ones have been dismissed in between. So, it may
confuse the program if it is unaware of this change.

The point of this patch is to avoid a reasign of standard file
descriptors on newly created ones.
