Yeah, it's a little confusing for C-Programmers, but I think it is OK to
do it in this way. The manual extra points a big note, that naming is
like in C, but the behaviour can be completely different.
Reverting the removing of the fd_* functions would actually more confuse
the users (again) then leaving a note in the manual ...
