Load Path Crashes

[Peter Berntsen]

 I use a script that starts with:
addpath (genpath ("~/forskning/octave"));

then I open 155 data files with fopen and read in the data with fscanf and
close with fclose.

If I run the script 3-4 times I get the following:
octave:10> prmtvtLFHF75
warning: load_path: .: Too many open files
warning: load_path: .: Too many open files
warning: load_path: .: Too many open files
warning: load_path: .: Too many open files

warning: load_path: .: Too many open files
warning: fopen: file found in load path
ans = D070719_080424_DMPC75_LFHFCC0.TXT
error: *** Cannot read file

The search path gets corrupt and throws up void when calling 'path':
octave:10> path
octave:11> 

This looks like a bug. If octave is shut down and restarted it works again
2-4 times then the error message comes again, see above.
I run octave3.01.
Any ideas of a workaround?
