Who keeps expansion.library open?

I played a little with Xoper recently, and looking at the library
overview I noticed that the expansion.library and romboot.library
both had an OpenCount of 1. So obviously someone is keeping those
libraries open for no apparent reason (at least the reason is not
apparent to me). Since there is nothing to expand after the boot,
and nothing more to boot either, I would think those libraries
would not need to be open any longer. They just waste some of my
precious memory (of which I now only have 512K) with their
library bases.

So I tried to close them forcibly (still with Xoper), and then
expunge them, but they would not go. They were completely 'stuck'
into memory.

I also saw that the ramlib.library had an OpenCount of 1. So I still
wonder what that ramlib.library is for.

So, who keeps those libraries open and why?
