[Cluster-devel] [PATCH] Fix misuse of cman FD in fenced

This patch fixes a caching of the cman file descriptor in fenced, which 
the header file explicitly says you should not do.

I have seen symptoms that are consistent with this going wrong and while 
I can't prove that this is the cause it looks highly likely.

The patch is against the RHEL5 branch, but the bug also exists in RHEL6 
and upstream versions

There also is a chance that this mistake exists in other cluster 
daemons, I haven't checked as yet.
