fd leak patch

I found out that the problem isn't in dejagnu. The problem seems to be
in expect. 

The problem can be reproduced also by:
echo 'remote_exec target "ls -l /proc/self/fd/"' >dejagnuleak.exp
expect  -- /usr/share/dejagnu/runtest.exp dejagnuleak.exp

Attached patch solves the problem in Fedora 20. I haven't tested 
it in RHEL.

Reassigning to expect...
