I understand that GNU C gives the TEMP_FAILURE_RETRY() macro, but I
find it really ugly, and takes away from the flow of the code. Perhaps
we should just add our own static inline functions of the same name:

write_intr(), read_intr(), open_intr()

that does the same thing and use that instead. The inline functions
could even use the TEMP_FAILURE_RETRY(). I just don't want that ugly
name scattered in the .c code.

Thanks!
