Subject: Re: errata/80: 17.2.7 omits description of use of fd

Should something be said about using $ferror after $fopen returns 0 instead of
an fd?
Should something be said about whether or not mcds are supported one at a time
or in groups? I would guess only a "single" channel descriptor is really
meaningful?
cheers
