StandardFileStream not closing files immediately

See if you can find a tool that monitors the files that are open to let
you check which files are the problem. I have one but it's for RISC OS
which is unlikely to help you...

A potential problem here is that the Squeak idea of a FileStream
doesn't map very tightly to the OS' idea. If you open the same file
n times for example (and it's platform dependent to some degree) and
close it n-1 times then obviously the OS will consider it open and
behave somewhat differently than if it is _really_ closed.

Remember the good old days, when CPU was singular?
