It does. You can strace it. :)

Probably can't get rid of that one. Many times people don't separate the audit 
directory to its own partition. So, we wind up sharing space with 
/var/log/messages 
which anyone can write to. Even if we had it exclusively, sometimes there is a 
cron 
job that might come and grab files for archiving in which case an internal 
count would 
be off.
