We are running Berkeley 4.1, and had the following problem recently.

Take a look at dumpdir.c ......
	#define MAXINO 2000
This recently caused a core dump when the inodes of a directory referenced
exceeded 2000.
I don't know about the rest of you, but we have a maximum of about 65536
inodes on our filesystems!
Changing the value of MAXINO from 2000 to 65536 solved the problem.
