My conclusion, too.  What could the explanation be, then?

I see things like:

Opened dir '.' as 5
N test/mkfile
succeeded to close dir 5
8.out import: Importing /n/other/sys/cvs/test/9
Opened dir '.' as 6
N /test/9/mkfile
succeeded to close dir 6
8.out import: Importing /n/other/sys/cvs/test/9/boot
Opened dir '.' as 7
...

from my debugging output.  One consideration is that these are freshly
created directories, presumably following a mkdir/chdir operation.

I _do_ run out of FDs around 100.
