with errno 17 my_create() did not perform any checks for the case when a file is successfully created by a call to open(), but the call to my_register_filename() later fails because the number of open files has exceeded the my_open_files limit. This can happen on platforms which do not have getrlimit(), and hence we do not know the real limit for open files. In such a case an error was returned to a caller although the file has actually been created. Since callers assume my_create() to return an error only when it failed to create a file, they did not perform any cleanups, leaving an 'orphaned' file on the file system. Fixed by adding a check for the above case to my_create() and ensuring the newly created file is deleted before returning an error. Creating a deterministic test case in the test suite is impossible, because the exact steps required to reproduce the above situation depend on the platform and/or environment (OS per-user limits, queries executed by previous tests, startup parameters). The patch was manually tested on Windows using examples posted in the bug report.
