[Samba] 3.6.10 file handle leak under ancient 32-bit kernel

[starlight.2013q1 at binnacle.cx]

Ah, and of course a 'strace'.

   http://binnacle.cx/file/smbd_file_leak_strace.txt

The leak appears related to the

    open("log")

events where /var/log is opened and
scanned periodically.  See three
'open' calls without any matching
close.

Most of the /proc/###/fd entries
are for /var/log, but a couple are
for other files:


# ls -o /proc/15056/fd | sort -k8,8n
