Using CVS "import" (thank you Russ, do you know that your efforts can - almost
- be used locally on a plan 9 system?) on a large distribution, one
runs out of, apparently, directory FDs.

Superficial inspection reveals that FDs increment as directories are
opened, but do not get reused once the directory is closed and a new
one opened.

Is it likely that APE closedir() does not release the FD?
