You proabably know that you can use open to change the defaults

Actually, I didn't. Thanks for bringing it up, I don't recall having seen it mentioned here before.

That said, it doesn't appear to affect this particular case as it seems it only applies to the 2-arg varient on open and/or the STD* handles.

Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.
Lingua non convalesco, consenesco et abolesco. -- Rule 1 has a caveat! -- Who broke the cabal?
