Initialize file descriptors to -1 here too. These haven't caused any crashes yet. But I am doing this anyway, because close(0) causes really weird and confusing backtraces in finch. The rest of the places seem to already do this.

For information on writing a plugin for Purple, Pidgin or Finch, go
http://developer.pidgin.im and click on API.  From there, see the HOWTOs in the
"Related Pages" section.

You can also generate this documentation locally by installing
doxygen and graphviz dot, then running "make docs" in the
source tree.  The documentation will be in the docs/html directory.
