Bug description

[This bug probably goes in the 'harmless oddities' section, but nonetheless]

I noticed in the toplevel that after having run out of file descriptors, I
couldn't declare a new class.

[henri@ffnet: ~/newwork/caml] ocaml bug.ml
I/O error: /usr/lib/ocaml/camlinternalOO.cmi: Too many open files

However, if i compile this snippet with ocamlc and run the binary, the class
declaration works fine.

bug.ml:

let _ =
begin
try
for i = 1 to 3000 do
ignore (open_in "/home/henri/work/150th/coordinates.txt")
done
with _ -> ();
end;

class t1 = object method id = 3 end;;
