Ha! That's an old bug report!
I no longer have a 9.04 installation, but:
10.04 LTS:
% ls -l /var/tmp/vi.recover | wc -l; 40
10.10:
% ls -l /var/tmp/vi.recover | wc -l; 1332
OpenBSD 4.9 (where nvi is native):
% ls -l /var/tmp/vi.recover | wc -l; 0
(My only Debian 6.X machine recently died, and I never thought to
check there. I was using nvi on it, as always.)
It hasn't exhausted inodes again on any version since 9.04, but
that doesn't mean much. Even without that extreme case, there
is still a bug.
