I don't think that's very efficient. The file is accessed at many places  
with the handle as array-index, and the code would have to be changed at  
all those places, and you'd need to iterate.

My idea was to use a scalable array like this:

if( hnd > oldsz )
	ofilesp = realloc( oldfiles, (oldsz += 8) + 5);

and set ofiles in filedesc to ofilesp+5.

But it's not much more than an idea atm.

Yes, but I'm afraid it will be hard to find the missing peace. If there  
would be reports I think I would know better where to look.
