Our program calls function freopen() (this function is used in file
src\backend\utils\error\elog.c). So we don't know exactly that
GetFileInformationByHandle() will fails for stdin/stdout/stderr.
Ior illustration, I attached small example (test.c) for this case:
1) GetFileInformationByHandle() for "stdout" works without error;
2) file "1.txt" after running test contains:
Sample string
attributes = 0x2020, file size = 15

I think fileno() is safer. We can call fclose(stdout) and
_fileno(stdout) returns -1 after that. But I don't know:
can OS reuse fileno=1 or not in this case?
With best regards,
