This is buggy anyway.  This should fix it too:

Yep, this makes it work too, but if a client is evil they could
pass a FD to qemu with any other non-getfd command & it'd remain 
open for ever. Probably not important though.

No, it wouldn't: outside the part that I patched there is this:

         if (s->msgfd != -1)
             close(s->msgfd);
         s->msgfd = fd;

Only one file descriptor could "leak".
