It seems to be a problem of the <available> taks. It creates a classloader
to search for a class in the classpath. The problem is that the classloader
stores the ZipFile classes, which are created for the jar files, in a cache. 

If the classloader doesn't get freed you will end up with

<open files> = <count of execution of the available task> *
               <files in the classpath>

So, the real problem is that the classloader doesn't get unloaded.

This error happen with jamvm, cacao and gij, but not with kaffe.
