The answer:
My vnode table is full. This is where open file descriptors are stored and the
system isn't able to open more files anymore. That's why you get the message
from the loader (sort of "runtime linker").
Increasing "maxusers" in my kernel config file (default is 32).
The "maxusers" keyword defines the number of simultaneous users that my system can support easily without straining system resources.
The "maxusers" keyword is used in the system algorithms to size a number of
system data structures and to determine the amount of space allocated to syste m tables. One such table is the system process table, which is used to
determine how many active processes can running atone time. Another is the
file table, which determines the total number of file opens and socketes on
the system.
