No, the oldest version of the file doesn't just roll off. You have to
run an inventory expiration to delete the pointer to the old file; once
the pointer is deleted, and you meet your reclamation threshhold, the
file indicated by the expired pointer will vanish when the volume it
resides in is reclaimed and reused.
