 * Public domain dup2() lookalike

 *
 * dup2 performs the following functions:
 *
 * Check to make sure that fd1 is a valid open file descriptor.
 * Check to see if fd2 is already open; if so, close it.
 * Duplicate fd1 onto fd2; checking to make sure fd2 is a valid fd.
 * Return fd2 if all went well; return BADEXIT otherwise.
