I've undef'ed HAVE_LIBRESOLV and HAVE_RES_INIT in s/darwin.h, as you
suggested.  Thanks.

When I evaluate the following form in "emacs -Q":

   (progn
     (setq p1 (make-network-process :name "p1" :host "www.fsf.org" :service 80))
     (setq p2 (make-network-process :name "p2" :host "www.fsf.org" :service 80))
     (setq p3 (make-network-process :name "p3" :host "www.fsf.org" :service 80))
     (delete-process p2)
     (process-send-string p3 "there"))

I get:

  Debugger entered--Lisp error: (file-error "writing to process" "bad file descriptor" #<process p3<1>>)
  process-send-string(#<process p3<1>> "hi")

This is because p2 and p3 are both created with infd=outfd=0, thus
closing the channel for p2 also closes that of p3.
