Yes, and CreateProcess needs special facilities to make this possible while in the UNIX model you don't.

Which special facilities are you referring to? If it's the ability to selectively inherit handles (fds) to a new process, Linux's lack of this "special facility" is nothing to be proud of.

How do you selectively pass on fds without having a global impact on your process?
