It seems like it is overly hard to test this kind of thing - you pretty much 
have to know there is a bug before you'll write a test case that opens that 
many handles.

Would it be worthwhile reducing the initial size of all these resizable tables 
so that normal programs would test the resizing code?

Fail early, fail often!
