Charles-Francois Natali <neologix at free.fr> added the comment:

Ooops, it's of course not going to break code containing accept + fork or pipe + fork, you obviously also need an execve ;-)
But the point is that you can't change the semantics of FDs being inheritable across an execve (think about inetd for example).
