No there is no such window; the accept() call either returns EBADF
(dup2()) wins the race or it returns a new file descriptor (and dup2()
then closes the listening descriptor).

One or the other.

The external behaviour atomic; you cannot distinguish the order
between the closing of the original file (and waking up other threads
waiting for a record lock) or changing the file referenced by that newfd.

But this not include a global or process specific lock.
