FWIW, I ran 10000 create/drop pairs through 7.3.2 (well, actually REL7_3
branch tip, but I'll be *real* surprised if it differs on this point)
on HPUX 10.20.  No sign of a problem.

You did say you tried already on Linux, right?  Which version exactly?

Can someone try the experiment on some *BSD platform?  Three data points
would make me reasonably comfortable that it doesn't fail on Unixen, and
then I'll say Cygwin gets the blame...
