Interesting enough this isn't even necessary. If the default size
of the dtable isn't enough, it's automatically reallocated if a
process requires more open file descriptors.

Maybe it's not ok in Cygwin that getdtablesize() and sysconf(_SC_OPEN_MAX)
return the current size of the dtable. Perhaps they should return NOFILE
or OPEN_MAX as it's already noted in a comment in the sysconf() source.
