In Gnu Emacs 18.50.3 under Spix (System V) on a Bull SPS-7 (68020): Call "man" a number of times (about eight). You will eventually get "Opening process input file: too many open files: /dev/null" At this point, you can no longer do anything with files.... Presumably someone's forgetting to close a file handle.
