NetBSD 1.6ZE (KERNEL) today

Recently, I've been experiencing the following when I reboot:

Nov  7 14:58:06 laptop postfix/postfix-script: starting the Postfix mail=20
system
Nov  7 14:58:06 laptop postfix/master[171]: fatal: pipe: Too many open files

I've increased the number of users to 128 in my kernel config, and set
kern.maxfiles=3D4096.=20

This occurs only on startup; I can manually start postfix after the compute=
r=20
has started up without fail.

Suggestions?
