  Gnulib module: close
  
  Portability problems fixed by Gnulib:
  @itemize
  @item
  This function crashes when invoked with invalid arguments on some platforms:
  MSVC 9.
  @item
  On Windows platforms (excluding Cygwin), @code{socket} and @code{accept}
  do not return file descriptors that can be closed by @code{close}.
  Instead, @code{closesocket} must be used.
  @end itemize
