how are you using the kfs? just locally?
a plan 9 client normally re-used fids, so i'd have thought you'd need to have >32767 active files,
which most people probably haven't done.

mind you, that reminds me that i'd noticed something odd when looking at 9p
traces earlier in the summer, which i'd failed to note to track down later
(unless i did work it out and decided there wasn't a problem).
