[Bug 21289] New: System call "dup2" returns 0 for negative inputs, thus behaving different from real Windows

           Summary: System call "dup2" returns 0 for negative inputs, thus
                    behaving different from real Windows
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.0.1
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: simon at josefsson.org


The program below when run under Wine will print:

rc 0

When I run the same binary on Windows XP, I get:

rc -1

The problem appears to be that the "dup2" system function doesn't do proper
input checking.

This is causing self-tests errors for projects (including several GNU projects)
that use some gnulib modules.

  int fd = open (file, O_CREAT | O_TRUNC | O_RDWR, 0600);

  rc = dup2 (fd, -2);
  printf ("rc %d\n", rc);

  return 0;
