Not so sure if it is a hard thing. But it sure is a deep going change
touching almost every source file and most functions in one way or
another..

It can easily be done in steps by starting by wrapping "file descriptor"
into a custom class and changing all the I/O calls into using methods on
this object. This gives a good view of the impact and what areas is badly
designed.
