Sorry to bother everyone with this, but our SCO Xenix 2.1.3 expire command
from 2.11b patchlevel 14 used to work, and now it generates

	expire: Cannot open .../lib/history.d/9 (w+): Too many open files

near the end of the expire run.  I've found the place in the code, but
before I try to find out what's going on I'm trying to find out if anyone
else has experienced this and figured it out.

Thanks, etc., Tony Olekshy (...!alberta!oha!tony or tony@oha.UUCP).
