History table. So the cache looks good.
md.c should be cacheing the file descriptor so the second use of the
file should not be reopening it. I've not touched smgr/md so a missing
file error is a surprise.
I wonder if this is an error associated with large file handling and
file forks? Smells like an FSM or VM error.
Is the file actually missing? i.e. ls -l mydatadir/base/16384/16394*
