Hmmm... turns out this is related to a known bug in the /usr/proc/bin
programs.  I had happened to be running pfiles on this process through
cron to watch the number of files open.  Another SA here just happened
to have been bitten by this several months ago and he told me about his
experience.  Nothing can describe this better than the bug report
though, so check it out.  From the bug report it looks like Sun has made
absolutely no progress on this one.
