This probably is the reason indeed. Right now after cleaning the zig
cache directories and just building the compiler I have one directory
with more than 3000 links; when the tests are run, they get much more,
although I haven't checked the amount. I'll try again.


I might move the zig build directory to zfs for the sake of a try,
it's easy enough.
