Operating system: Solaris 9
PHP version:      5.0.2
PHP Bug Type:     Filesystem function related
Bug description:  "Unable to fork..."-error appears periodically

Description:
------------
Solaris restricts the use of popen() to 255 files, which is a low limit in
case of servers. When using PHP's system() commands, PHP calls Solaris
popen(). This fails, when too system-commands have been invoked.
See here
(http://www.sitepoint.com/forums/showthread.php?p=1245879#post1245879) for
more details.

Expected result:
----------------
PHP should implement a workaround or call another Solaris function for
invoking system commands.
