public bool close_checked (int fd) throws FileError
This wraps the close call; in case of error, errno will be preserved, but the error will also be stored as a Error in throws.
Besides using Error, there is another major reason to prefer this function over the call provided by the system; on Unix, it will attempt to correctly handle eintr, which has platform-specific semantics.
