Hi!

There is a bug in the '/' command. Try executing it about 16+ times
on some valid item. Hack should at that point run out of file descriptors.
The fix is to add a fclose(fp) in hack.pager.c (enclosed is a context diff).
Time to get back to work.

Happy hacking!!!!!! (sure hope this fix works everywhere... it works here!)
