You are welcome.

Thanks for the fix.
Please also note that mv does not fail when "too many open files"
messages occur, it just keep on warning for each file (~9000 warnings
in the initial example) and does not move anything. With this fix,
this message shouldn't happen again but maybe it means that mv does
not properly check the files and directories it opens.
