[racket] Retrieving OS file handle from file ports

The Racket C API provides

  intptr_t scheme_get_port_fd(Scheme_Object* port);

which you can access through the FFI:

 (require ffi/unsafe)

 (define scheme_get_port_fd
   (get-ffi-obj 'scheme_get_port_fd #f (_fun _racket -> _intptr)))

 (scheme_get_port_fd (current-output-port))
