--- Comment #8 from Joe Orton <jorton@redhat.com> ---
I was wrong before, back in comment 2.  There is literally no way to fix these
races in the default handler.  open() fstat() sendfile() still has a race
between fstat to determine the Content-Length, and the sendfile, during which
the file could change.  "Design a different web server" is out of scope for
bugzilla.
