If Gnash was a traditional style plugin, we wouldn't be using file descriptors, as they'd be unnecessary. They're only used now because Gnash runs standalone.

hostfd and controlfd are static variables and thus shared between instances of the pluginScriptObject. If multiple plugins instances are run at the same time, it is uncertain to which file descriptors the plugin will be writing to. This could make requests go to the wrong Gnash instance.
