> Description
> ===========
> Now that the helix server runs on a threaded environment in linux, we can
> no longer launch a new streamer if we run out of file descriptors.  So we
> need to make sure that we behave as gracefully as possible and provide
> reasonable error messages in the situation that we run out.  The following
> diff simply creates a new error HXR_NO_MORE_FILES and passes it out of
> smplfsys.
