1.7.9: mq_unlink/mq_open leaks handles

[Manuel Wienand <Manuel dot Wienand at ubitronix dot com>]

Hallo,

it seems that mq_unlink and/or mq_open forget to close some handles (5 to be precise).
How to test:
Execute the following code and watch the number of handles in the windows task-manager (processes tab, you can add a column there). For me it increases by 5 with every loop.

Tested with this DLL: cygwin1-20110327.dll

Thanks,

Manuel

    // Remove old queues before trying to create a new one.
    res = mq_unlink(msgQueueTestName);
    if ((res == -1) && (errno != ENOENT))
    {
      // Don't print anything if the queue can't be unlinked, because it doesn't exist.
     printf("Failed to unlink msg queue %s: %s %d\n", msgQueueTestName, sys_errlist[errno],errno);
    }

    testQueue = mq_open(msgQueueTestName, O_RDWR | O_CREAT | O_EXCL, S_IRWXU | S_IRWXG, &attrQueue);

    }

    }
  }

	return EXIT_SUCCESS;
