#416 Too many open files when processing many files

I'm trying to process about 5000 images with the following bash command:

ufraw-batch --embedded-image *.cr2

UFRaw-Batch processes first 1020 files, and for the rest it prints "Too many open files" error. A workaround is to use ulimit -n 6000 or so. But it seems ufraw-batch forgets to close the already-processed files, leaking file descriptors, which would be a bug.
