>Description:
	It is not possible to create more than 1022 files using using awk '>'
	operator. Probably because it keeps files opened and runs out of
	available file descriptors.

	Being able to create thousands of files is a useful feature if one wants
	to split a very large file into multiple files based on a regular
	expression pattern.
>How-To-Repeat:
	$ cd /tmp
	$ seq 1 2000 | awk '{ print "test" > $0 }'
	awk: can't open file 1022
	input record number 1022, file 
	source line number 1
