[PATCH] close fd after ap_send_fd() in req_sendfile()
-----------------------------------------------------

Key: MODPYTHON-36
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MODPYTHON-36
Project: mod_python
Type: Bug
Versions: 3.1.3
Environment: Linux 2.6 x86
Apache HTTPD 2.0.52
mod_python 3.1.3
Reporter: Matt Wilson

Our application sometimes sends thousands of files in response to a request. Since mod_python relies on the file descriptors to be closed for you when the resource poll is freed, we run out of file descriptors for no good reason. The attached patch clos
es the fd after apr_file_open() is done with it.
