This tripped me up at first (here and elsewhere in the series), it
looks weird to read an fd that isn't the one passed in as an argument.
I think you'd generate infinitesimally better code to use the argument
and not the global since the argument form is never going to be a cache
miss; I'm not sure I care enough to press the point, but maybe that's
measurable on arm or something.
