  Hello,

In the code of abg-elf-reader.cc, the value 0 is used as a sentinel
value to signify that a given file descriptor is not set.  Because
POSIX allows 0 as a normal file descriptor value, this patch uses -1
as a sentinel value.

	* src/abg-elf-reader.cc (reader::priv::alt_{ctd,dwarf}_fd):
	Initialize to -1 instead of 0.
	(reader::priv::{initialize, clear_alt_dwarf_debug_info_data,
	clear_alt_ctf_debug_info_data}): Likewise.

Signed-off-by: Dodji Seketeli <dodji@redhat.com>
Applied to the mainline.
