Currently, we open the system base frequency file, but never close it,
which results in a memory leak.

Coverity issue: 369693

Notes:
    Ideally, the close should be added at the end, but there's a bunch of 
ERR_RET
    macros before that, so addressing that would put us dangerously close to
    refactoring, which is not what we want to do so close to the release.
    
    This issue was already "fixed", but because the variable naming and the 
flow of
    code is confusing, the fix was addressing a different variable. There is a
    patch for 21.08 that will address the code flow and make it less confusing.
