Comment(by robgjansen):

 Replying to [comment:24 nickm]:
 > I'm guessing that the very very big fd is a Shadow behavior, and not a
 bug.  I wonder how this is possible.

 Shadow gives out descriptors starting at 1000000 so it can distinguish
 system calls on virtual sockets (which it intercepts and manages) from
 those on file descriptors (which it lets the underlying OS handle).
