(RADIATOR) ForkClosesFD and Radar port conflict

[Mike McCauley]

Hello Nacho,

Thanks for reporting this.
We were not able to exactly reproduce this problem, even with a damon with 
ForkClosesFDs set.
Nevertheless, we have now added code so that ForkClosesFDs does not close 
Monitor or other server ports if it forms with ForkClosesFDs set.

The changes are in the latest Radiator 3.13 patch set. Please check that it 
fixes your problem and let us know.

Cheers.
