This is a variant of Bug#24325: Crash - fd larger than FD_SETSIZE.
Some functions in the Core Foundation framework on macOS
call setrlimit for RLIMIT_NOFILE in order to increase the limit of
the maximum number of open files for the process:

  https://opensource.apple.com/source/CF/CF-1153.18/CFSocket.c.auto.html

So the fix for Bug#24325 doesn't work in this case.
