I found this enum which indicates that i=2 would be READ_FROM_SUBPROCESS.
/* Indexes of file descriptors in open_fds. */
enum
{
/* The pipe from Emacs to its subprocess. */
SUBPROCESS_STDIN,
WRITE_TO_SUBPROCESS,
/* The main pipe from the subprocess to Emacs. */
READ_FROM_SUBPROCESS,
SUBPROCESS_STDOUT,
I confirmed with printfs that open_fd[2] is set to 5 by the
emacs_pipe() calls in create_process (I also double checked with gdb
that nobody else sets it in between).
I printed all open_fd values from deactivate_process, just before the
closing loop, I got
deactivate_process()open_fd[0] = -1, open_fd[1] = 4, open_fd[2] = 5,
open_fd[3] = -1, open_fd[4] = -1, open_fd[5] = -1,
So, only WRITE_TO_SUBPROCESS and READ_FROM_SUBPROCESS are open. When
compiling bug.c without -mwindows, all open_fd values are -1 at that
spot.

Ah, sorry, I upped the waiting time to 5 minutes, because 5 seconds
seemed a bit short for debugging. So I should have said "until bug.exe
terminates" (either by itself, or because I told it to).
Another observation: if I close Emacs while it's running bug.exe,
Emacs closes successfully, but leaves bug.exe running (even though I
answer yes at the prompt to kill it).
