Please, no fixed-size tables of resources, like unix fds.  Whatever number
you pick, someone's bound to want more.  Let the OS keep lists of
active resources so it can pick up after you.  Or chain the things
together if you're worried about space.

Resource tracking, yes.  Fixed sized resource tables, no.
